I thought by providing as much information as possible would be the best way to get a good answer. It appears that 90% of what I monitor is a TRS in the 700/800 MHz band. Since I am located in southern Delaware by the Atlantic Ocean, Coast Guard provides good listening during the summer, both traditional and digital communications in the 160 band. My current antenna is situated about 30'-35' off the ground, perhaps 10' above my roof line, but I have a large line of pine trees abutting to one side. My current roof antenna does not seem to work any better than the 800Mhz portable antenna in my home. Since all systems in Maryland and Delaware are now trunking, can someone recommend a decent base antenna capable of increasing range in the 700-800 band? I believe in you get what you pay for! I forgot I have an SDS 100 and 436. Thanks
