Has anyone had any experiences with this antenna good or bad.
PAR MON-3
Design frequencies: 144-174, 440-470 and 800-900 MHz. Gain: 1.7 dBi.
Impedance: 50 ohms. Pattern: Omni.
How does it stack up against the Diamond D-130J?
Thanks
Bob
I had the Diamond and gave it to the garbage man. After using the

(

Discone again.
First you need to remember that a Discone has no gain.
Since you only have two choices I would pick the MON-3 simply because
they at least advertise some gain where as a discone is a unity gain
antenna.
