I am looking for an antenna to use on my radio to receive a site I've been trying really hard to receive. I am a fill-in photojournalist for a news video service and I've noticed any time I've brought the vehicle I use home or my co-workers have stopped by we are able to hear the Denton County P25 system in front of my house on the RadioShack 652 or 197 (I can't remember which it is) but I am not able to hear it on my attic discone. Any reason why we can hear it on the vehicle but not my discone? I don't know what the antennas are but they look like the Motorola HAE4003A, but I don't think they are Motorola.
Also, if you think I could possibly receive them inside my house with the same antenna, could anyone recommend a good quality one for the band the system is in for a good price?
