diamond 789 vs rh770 telescopics

[ZEbbEDY]

I'm after a new antenna for my yaesu ft-60 and am wondering which of these would be best for scanning all the bands and U/VHF tx when out campng/hiking etc

I'm thinking 789 would be a bit lighter and with the hinge less prone to stress on the small connector

are there better telescopic options than these two? I also have a nagoya 771 which was supposed to be great wide receive but not impressed with it at all

also there are a few clones of the diamond rh770 are they identical under a different name or are they inferior?

thanks for any insight

Hey, I use to have both, Nagoya 771 I sold it as the performance was below Diamond SR77CA and Watson WSMA 881. Diamond 789 is a better antenna in my opinion, still in my antenna collection.
