> 3 dayI live in a rural area where there is no analog state patrol, so half the purpose of having an analog scanner is defeated. As others have commented it can make a handheld scanner top-heavy. If you listening to the 400 band it works great without expanding. If you prefer to listen to the 100 band, extend the antenna about halfway out. For even lower frequencies extend it all the way out (i.e. listening to truckers on their CB radios). One thing I can say is that it reduces bleed overs if you are next to another scanner- something a stock antenna fails to accomplish.

Greater than one weekI have another version of this antenna. This antenna is 50 long (or less, adjustable). That means you can adjust the length to be an end-fed 1/2-wave antenna on 144 MHz and above. 10W power limit on transmit. Do the math.

> 3 dayWorks fine and gives a little better reception distance than rubber duck. Put it on an old radio shack scanner. An antenna isnt going to fix old technology but the antenna works well.
