Best Dual Band Wide Receive Mobile

[n211cr]

I am looking at purchasing a Dual Band to go with my Yaesu 7800. I am looking at doing a trunk lip mount. Right now I have the RS magnetic mobile scanner antenna, because I primarily use it as a scanner. I am looking however to increase my activities in the Ham field so I am going to upgrade. Let me know which you recommend and where is the best place to buy them. Thanks.

If you're looking for something low profile, you might consider the Comet SBB-2. It's an 18" 2 meter and 440 MHz mobile antenna.

I have mine permanently installed in the center of my trunk lid on an NMO mount and it performs very well.

As to where to buy one... I purchased mine from AES because at the time, Universal didn't have them in stock.

ok thanks, I have looked through both sites and some eham reviews. Low profile is not too big of an issue on an 02 Chevy Prizm.

I have an Antenex lip mount antenna for my FT-7800R
