[SMCARA] 2m car antenna & cb antenna

[Dave Q]

I have an NMO mount on the roof of my truck and have had both a diamond and
comet antenna.  But.... a dual band Larson out performs them both.  That's
my experience and of course every one's situation is different.

You say you are looking for a quick disconnect.  Not sure if you want to be
able to remove it due to garage or some overhead obstruction or just want
to be able to remove it often.  The Diamond Supergainer antennas are fold
over and may meet your needs.

As always, YMMV.
