I have Bluetooth built into my LC100 Radio and have just gone over to Telstra Next G for better reception in the Country. Optus just didn't have the coverage out there...

I want to put an external aerial on my bullbar with a patch lead into the phone which saves me buying a full carkit which I don't need.

Has anyone got a good aerial that they can recommend ?
And "where do you get it"

Thanks

Nokia 6120, force cradle with inductive antenna and 850mhz bull bar antenna. Any decent mobile shop or even Telstra.

Have just got a 9db glass mount antenna ( by some reports they are just as good as bullbar mounted ones ) and a patch lead for the LG550..

Haven't field tested it yet , so cannot report on how good it is, but certainly beats finding another spot on the bullbar for another antenna !!

Dick Smith sell one that you can mount onto a bullbar. Then all you need is a patch lead...and let me tell you that they can be hard to find sometimes. If you cannot find the patch at a Telstra shop try Wincom http://www.wincom.com.au/
According to modern astronomers, space is finite..a very comforting thought particularly for people who can never remember where they left things

Telstra shops sell a multiband RFI brand aerial.Model RF 2195 If I remember rightly
It covers all the usable bands and connects to the Force cradle. I bought one at Telstra Pacific Fair For $180 for both.
Saw the identical aerial in Telstra at Morayfield for $179.
So be careful

Hi, I bought an aerial made by Laser on the Gold Coast because it can be unscrewed when not in the bush. The Telstra one was permanently attached type. Something to consider. Cheers, Graham.
