Hello everyone and thanks for looking. I just picked up this scanner off of craigslist and I need help finding an antenna. From other members the frequency range for this scanner is 30-54, 118-136, 137-174, and 406-512 Mhz (supposedly). I am looking for an antenna that is a mobile mag mount, not anything above 2.5 feet tall, and preferably doesn't have multiple elements in the antenna mast. Thanks for the help.

I realize that the antenna and the coax are just as important, but just because the antenna has a standing element doesn't make it immediately a better choice. I am going to use this mostly for mobile.

Your antenna and coax are just as important as the scanner. Are you using this as a mobile or as a outside base antenna? Good Scannin...Hoser
