Thank ya Sir.. i'v pulled some of my scanning USA mags out of the closet and took a look back allot of the antenna's that are mentioned today for scanning was used back then and some antenna's were just being introduced out into the scanning world with big expectations and they're doing very good today.

I wished the Magazine could of hung in there as well but there are two great Magazines that have scanning in a section in them. But they won't come close scanning USA :)

Here's a Pic of an Oldie but a Goody it's my BC200xlt Antenna i bought it as a Spare for my bc200xlt which has been out of my hands for Quite some time now) but the Antenna i kept and just found it in one of my parts boxes it looks as good as the Day i got it. Way back in 93 or 94



Here's the Picture.. and the Bnc fits good and tight.. :cool:

What I really like about this particular antenna that probably hasn't been mentioned yet is that you can leave it on top of the scanner and slip the whole thing into an inside pocket of a coat. For the low price, it truly is a great antenna.
