I got my son the telescoping one for his Baofeng.
It is longer when extended, but smaller when closed.
I think that the longer part is better, as it is likely a half-wave antenna.
I plan on getting one for my radio too.

Can anyone recommend a good replacement antenna for the stock baofeng Uv82?

Don't really want a longer antenna if I can help it. .=20
