I just mounted my KB9VBR J-Pole and I can say that I am actually quite impressed with the results
I have the antenna mounted approx 30ft. on the roof of the house and I am pulling in Locomotives from about 30 miles away.The RR frequencies are really busy now that I have something to pull them in with.
I am picking up base units from well over 70+ miles with ease and can say this is the best $35 I have ever spent on an antenna.
The construction is top notch and I have a feeling this antenna will last me for a very long time.
Oh and this is fed in to a Radio Shack PRO-164.
Just wanted to share my experience.
Here is the antenna he sells.
Oh and he actually tuned the antenna for the 155/460 range at no extra cost these are tuned for the 2m/70cm if you do not specify otherwise.
