Hi,
I just received the Omega-Tec 2 meter antenna. Its a little pricy, but it
really works! It put the stock antenna to shame and received and
transmitted better then a comit and a smiley antenna that I have. The only
disadvantage to these antennas is that they can only be used on one band,
but the Omega-Tec antenna sure does work!

I wanted to share this article in the event anyone would be interested =
or may have some experience with these antennas.
