I have been looking for a good antenna for use for scanning. I wanted something a bit discrete to place on the window ledge of an apartment window that was not very visible. (Ie blends in)

A quick research indicates this might be the appropriate model for scanning?

In my case I don't need a magnetic mount since the window sill is wood, but would this be the proper NMO mount so it sits flat on the window sill?
