I'm considering putting up a good antenna, to go with my new BC796D scanner.
It seems many of the scanner antennas on the market are made very poorly,
and don't hold up over time, and weather. Has anyone spent the big bucks
for a Create Log-Periodic 5130-2N? It's a wideband, high~gain, directional
antenna that offers 11~13 dBi gain from 105~1300 MHz. But at $300.00, I'm
hesitating.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.
