Yes, I was wondering has anybody ever used one of those antennas that are called the ' J-Pole Antennas, they are in the size of 24"-36", they are being sold on ebay, the seller claims to have sold over 5000 antennas. The seller also brings up the radioreference.com in his ebay auction pages. The ad for the 36" super J-Pole claims that it will smoke all the other antennas. One key word that is in the ad is the word 'Resonance'. The ad claims that the J- Poles bring in the clear reception in the frequencys of 800-900 MHZ. I thought before I lay down $ 40.00 for this 36" J-Pole, I should go on the forum and ask, if there are any of the 5000, happy jumping up and down buyers who in the feedback for this antenna claim it has made the difference on night and day. But the seller says, ' IT AIN'T NO 55' UP DISCONE. So, any of the 5000 what do you think, I have two Radio Shack Pro -96s, tuned up with Win 96 software, one I am using a Radio Shack 800MHZ antenna, and the other is a ' Diamond RH77CA, antenna, which works somewhat better than the RS 800mhz antenna. I live in a townhome and puttiing a antenna on the roof is forbidden.
I like the article that was up on the forum, about using one of the Radio Shack Moble antennas I forgot the number of it but it is about 36" long and fiberglass, there was a good article pertaining to the parrawel plane that is created from the antenna usiing the car or trucks metal roof,, does any one know about this? can a person in fact put a moble antenna in a home and use it? some and it seems like a lot of fellow scanner hobbiests have just come up with the acceptenace of garbble, shot noise from raw uncoded signal not being read fast enough for the scanner.
