Hi Antony, I am using a tri band antenna on a file cabinet right now.  Also
a duo band antenna on a refrigerator.  Both have worked well on 2m and 220.

Hi Blake;

I don't know of anything better except maybe a dedicated (j) pole.
However, what metal objects have you found work well with a dual-band or, a
t=
ri-band mag mount, such as 2 meters, 220 and, 440 MHz?
