Best dual band mobile antenna I have ever used is a Larsen NMO 2/70B. 
Beats every Comet and Diamond I have tested. Horizontal loops are better 
:) I have a dual band M2 stack with a homebrew mag mount (3 magnets) and 
duplexer. I have worked KH6HME many years ago on 2 meters with this 
setup from CM95.

73, Ron
