Bingfu 20-1300MHz Police Scanner Antenna Magnetic Base HF VHF UHF Two Way Ham Radio BNC Male Antenna Compatible with Uniden Bearcat Whistler Radio Shack Police Scanner

Is small but works well. Magnet is strong.

Needed a better indoor antenna. Reception range is easily 10-15 miles. Plenty of cable for optimal antenna placement. Good mag base but not sure if I would use it in a mobile application.

Nice antenna with wide frequency range. Works well on my scanner.

It holds on a vehicle roof well, doesnt mark it up. Sensitivity (at least in N. American rail frequencies, 160-161 mhz) is EXCELLENT for such an inexpensive antenna. I have one small complaint, but not enough to take away a star. The wire is very flimsy, and particularly if you are connecting a handheld scanner, the wire tends to internally where it goes into the plug. Wrap several turns on black electrical tape to protect the wire from severe kinks at the plug, and it will last significantly longer. If you dont protect it like i described, you'll be leaving a 1-star review saying "it quit working after a month".

I needed a base antenna for my Bear-cat BNC-355N. This Bingfu antenna with air band and scanner frequency, works better than the antenna that the scanner came in the box. It has a magnet base, I cut a piece of sheet metal, I had a 5' PVC 3/4, painted tan color, The base to hold it was 2" X 2" left from a project. Its windy here in Las Cruces, added wire tie downs on the PVC. From ground to top of the Antenna its 15' high. On air band our local airport is 25 miles, I now can pick it up. On the police side I can pickup the sub-station that is 35 miles near the NM -TEX borderline. For the price, Am a Happy listener on air traffic & police scanning.

This is great antenna with strong signal. It has a good magnet and hasn’t flew off my car. Unfortunately both of my antennas which I’ve had for a month are a total loss. The wire wher it meets the BNC connector slipped off and on my other one the wire ripped. These are very delicate antennas and you must be very gentle with them. They also rust super easy. I will not be buying again and am returning both!

Great item

This antenna claims 20MHz to 1300MHz, which is difficult to do for an antenna. Honestly I didn't expect much for $15, and my gut was correct. I have some very expensive equipment that shows on a good day, it might be OK above 400-500MHz, as judged by the VSWR graph. Sadly the VSWR graph is not much worse with the antenna whip unscrewed from the base. In other words, the coax is so lossy that any signal doesn't get through. and the antenna at the end barely does anything. I was hoping for better performance in the low band VHF, where my local CHP uses 38-40MHz frequently. You can see that at 38.5MHz, it has a 1:11 VSWR, which is utterly horrible. Note that in case you're not familiar with what you are looking at, lower in the graph is better. Real world performance even in the 700MHz to 800MHz bands are horrible. My scanner's stock rubber antenna used inside a car was about the same performance. The short version is that this thing is designed to look like an antenna, however seems to be a junk prop that does not perform as an antenna. Also keep in mind that these days if you buy it and want to return it, it will go to the landfill, so please save your time, money, and the environment. Do Not Buy!

モービルアンテナとしてとても良い！コンパクトなのでどの場所に付けてもマグネットもしっかりしてるので大丈夫！ 受信も悪くは無いです。ただ、悪い所と言うか商品としては無いのですが表記に警察スキャナアンテナとありますが良く分からない 警察も使用してる？って事かな？まさか警察無線を受信出来るとか？そんなわきゃ無い！:⁠^⁠)

worked as it should on bearcat scanner radio

I use this for the s. D. S 100 unit and scanner handheld, and that works great. It's worth the money. Everything comes in much clearer, a further distance.

Still testing it. I live in a condo so some frequencies I still can't get.

item is set up outside my window and can pick up signals from about 50km away at ground level with no direct line of sign.
