I use a remtronix for the trunking stuff. Works wonderful. Anybody got any recommendations geared more towards the airband? Or something better towards the lower bands?
SDS100 Airband antenna recomendations?

I use this one for VHF and Airband. Collapsed, it's passable on 800 but not fantastic. However, it's worked quite well for me on the lower bands including air. Also, the antenna can be folded which comes in more handy than you might think sometimes.

Thanks for the reply. It states it doesn't fit the sds100 though. Or is that a typo?
The Diamond RH-77A works great if you can adapt the SDS100 to a BNC.
SDS100 BNC Adapter
This BNC adapter is designed to correctly fit the SDS100. Engages the shoulder around the SMA connector for additional structural support. Reduced the likelihood of the SMA connector breaking if the unit is dropped. Larger-diameter base is...
I have the BNC version of this with an adapter since I had been using it with a different scanner initially. I wasn't aware the SMA version may not fit as commented above. Scannermaster could tell you for sure but my BNC with adapter works well. Good luck!
