Hi.  What does this antenna look like? Can we get a detailed description?
They didn't do so good describing it on the web site.

Thanks.

Might be smiley antennas.com instead. I forget. I have two of these.

It isn=92t available, o wasn=92t last I checked, as a choice, but put a =
note in the comments section that you want the SMA female base. Just =
mention that you have a Wouxun radio (we know you don=92t), and they=92ll =
send you the correct one.=20

I have two of these. Fully extended,they=92re a quarter wave on 2 = meters.
Collapse 2 sections and it=92s a 5/8 wave on 440. Collapse one = more
section and it=92s a quarter wave on 220. Collapse it completely = and
it=92s a quarter wave on 440. There=92s a spring in the bottom to = take
some of the physical shock and vibration. Very comfortable to wear = on your
belt, should be exactly what you=92re looking for.
