[Icom] Dual-Band HH antennas

For what its worth, I think the W32/stock antenna is a great combo.  I also
find the Icom antenna is a GREAT   scanner antenna, and I got enough of them
to put on all my handheld scanners.  I suspect it is a well engineered
antenna for 2m and 70cm, and works well on vhf/uhf public service bands as
well. Just my .02 worth.
