External Aerial for my Icom 41s Handheld's

So I reckon the 3 and 6 db package would be a great option, (he says after just clicking your link)

Hiya Bonz

I know stuff all about aerials but with limited reading, its good you agree so i'll head that way

Cheers

Warfer if I can find the flamin page now that GME have made their website "better" I will link you to it, to show you a bit about how they work.

Picture this: You know how you have that adjustable thing with your hose, from a fine wide mist to a long strong stream? Well they are both pushing the same volume or water.

The water volume is like the power of your UHF set, say 5 watts. If you have the hose on the fog setting everything close gets soaked it goes high and wide but only an average distance, thats like a 1 to 3db antenna. If you turn the hose adjustment you will get a stream that goes a long way, in a straight line, but if you are close and underneath it you wont get wet..... Thats like a 6 to 9 db antenna.

so the combined 3 and 6 db setup is great. 3 db for close and mountains talking and 6db for the roads where u may want to go a bit further but its flat...
Am I confused you? Cause its almost 1 am here .......
