So I have scoured as much as I could to see if anyone has asked this but I haven't found anything. I know that a 1/4 wave VHF NMO works great on all bands for scanners BUT I am in a situation where I can't do a 1/4 wave VHF. So could a 1/4 wave UHF NMO center mounted on the trunk work for scanner usage only to pick up VHF(150-170) and obviously UHF? I don't need to pick up the furthest tower out there lol just generalized listening in a specific area I am in at that time. Not worried about 700/800 if that matters or not. Any feed back is much appreciated, or anyone done this and had good results please let me know.
