So I put up an OmniX ( DPD Productions) scanner base antenna on a roof eave mount. Picking up analog vhf pretty good but P25 (700-800) not the greatest.
The scanner with a radio shack center load telescoping antenna picks up p25 a lot better from inside the room were the scanner sits.
The scanner is in a room almost right below the Onnix antenna. The coax run is about 30 feet use RG8 which I purchased from DPD productions. Also tried lmr400 with little difference is the signal.
Did I do something wrong? I would think the outside antenna should Out preform the telescoping antenna off the scanner.
I’ll add some pictures of the OmniX antenna.
