I recently ordered an amplified charger, and I’ll likely be returning it, unless someone can point me to something I might be doing wrong. In my vehicle, connected to a mag mounted all band antenna, it’s bounced out of range in what should be excellent coverage area on the MN armer system in the Minneapolis Saint Paul metro area. All of the places it’s bounced out of range in the charger are areas where I received perfectly with the g5 sitting in my car without the charger.
I also road tripped with the charger through Wisconsin recently, and barely experienced any improvement in performance monitoring the WISCOMM system over using the g5 outside the charger. The g5 bounced out of range a great deal both in and out of the charger. This may be a poor example, as WISCOMM seems to have a number of system issues, but I believe I should have been able to see better performance scanning a vhf system in the charger. I’m going to pass back through Wisconsin tomorrow, and will post if performance is different.
