Deciding between 3 antennas

[manross]

I'm just getting into the MilAir aspect of scanning. I already have the Pro96 and 2096 for the local trunking system with an outside antenna that works good.

I just bought a BCT15 scanner to dedicate to the MilAir freqs. I'm having a hard time deciding which antenna to use with it. I think all 3 of these would work pretty good. I'm asking for any experience you may have with either of these and if you recommend one over the other 2...why. Thanks a bunch in advance for your time.

Just an update from talking with others, I think I'm zeroing in on the DPD Miltenna vhf/uhf omni antenna.

Anyone out there having experience with this antenna your thoughts would be appreciated.
