One of my radios is a Kenwood TK-280 (146-174) transceiver. It has a factory KRA-16M stubby antenna on it which for the most part does the job.
What I'd like to have as an option is a telescopic antenna for that band width that has an SMA female connection. Just something that I can keep in the glove box for the occasion I want to pull in a weak signal. I don't need it for transmitting. I've looked online and searched this forum and can't seem to find a telescopic SMA antenna for VHF. Anyone have any advice?
Since I originally posted I did come across this. Are these decent or should I be looking for something better?
