Hello everyone!
Q. What is my best antenna choice?
This question is a continuation from the original subject found in the
CB Radio Forum / Hunting Radios thread.
Hunting Radios
I got some great start up advice for my application but now it's time to start talking GMRS antennas for that same application.
I decided to go with the Motorola Talkabout Distance DPS HT with the Argent simplex repeater.

The low power consumption coupled with its removable antenna and mobility were the foremost deciding factors.
As mentioned in the other thread, this will be set up in a small cabin connected to
a 30 watt solar panel and an 86 amp. hour gel-cell battery.
Terrain - thick brush and very hilly.
The Cabin is on the high ground and will have a 20 foot mast attached putting the antenna approximately 25 or so feet in the air.
I only really need to get out around a mile or so.
Suggestions?
