I have a radio shack pro 91.I listen mainly around the 800-900 mhz freq,I
now use a telescopic antenna in the retracted position.6" in height.the
signal's are in and out.Now on the vhf freq's it has great sensitivity,But i
listen mainly on 800 mhz.any good ht antenna's for this band??

I only monitor VHF-hi on my handheld scanner and I use a Larson mono-band 2
meter duckie.  I'm assuming that a BNC connector on the duckie ... if so see
if Motorola or someone makes a gain type duckie for their 2 way's with a BNC
for 800 mHz.
