watson

Hi, Im looking to get a new antenna that will imrpove my reception for my 396XT on all bands. Ive been looking at the watson 889 and 881. I like the 889 because it is telescopic however it is something I can live without. Are these two antennas compairable? Which is better? Thanks!

Just purchased a Watson super searcher which as any owner will know comes with a single sheet info sheet very vague. I manage to get it locked on to new freqs but have contected to my 8200 & have slide button on Watson set to AOR but cannot get scanner to reaction tune. Please help !!!
