Looking for 800 / 900 MHz Magmount Antenna

[seligman]

Any recommendations for a magmount antenna covering the upper 800's and 900 MHz range? Preferably something with 5dB gain or better and a BNC mount.

Thanks.

A cell phone antenna with a tnc/ bnc adapter is a easy substitute.

I picked one up at Goodwill the other day for $2

Thanks for the tip... Do these cell phone antennas come with good or junk coax?

Well they work good enough to transmit a cell signal to a cell site, and you're just receiving.

I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean.

It's small coaxial cable,probably rg174 maybe rg58a/u but should work great for receiving 700/800 LTR , etc.
