I have a rubber ducky antenna on my Pro-97 & the antenna is very wobbly, but the bnc connector is not loose. I tried another rubber ducky & had the same issue. any suggestions?
I also have a PRO-97 with the same "problem." But it's not really a problem, it's just the design of the BNC connector. It's designed with a little give so you can take the antenna off more easily. The fact that you put on another antenna and had the same result is proof of this basic design flaw.
Several years ago I ruined a Uniden Sportcat handheld that had the same wobbly BNC issue. I tightened the O ring so tight that I cracked the casing. Now I know better. As much as I hate this wobble, there's nothing that can be done about it.
Oh for the days of the old Realistic 4-channel pocket scanners with the screw-in rubber duck.
