I just bought this off eBay:
SCANNER MULTI BAND MICRO MAG ANTENNA TMM3 W/ BNC CONN - eBay (item 380138905176 end time Jul-19-09 20:04:06 PDT)
The seller shipped super fast. When I got it and looked at it I said uh oh this thing is crap. The 9' wire is super thin, think USB cable thin, and the magnet is super tiny, like the size of a quarter maybe bigger, the whip is thin as well.
So I figure what the heck I will give it a try. Well on the way to work this morning I was surprised at how well it worked! Across all bands including 800 MHz. I was picking up stuff from all over.
And after my 35 mile drive to work at 60-70 MPH it stayed put! So the tiny mag mount holds well too!!
Well worth the $19.45 I spent.
The TMM3 portable/mobile scanner antenna weighs approximately 2 oz. and is only 17" tall. It features a super-strong rare earth magnet base that is pre-wired with 9' of RG174 cable and a BNC connector. The TMM3 is a Tri-band antenna, transmitting at 144-148MHz (2m/40 watts max), 430-456 MHz (25 watts) and 824-896MHz (cellular/15 watts max). It also receives in the range of 100- 1200MHz for scanner reception.
