Is there a antenna specificly for listening to the 482 frequencies for a
handheld scanner? I know that there are mobile antennas specificly tuned
for certain frequency ranges,so I was wondering if there are any
handheld antennas that would be better for receiving the 480 frequency
range.



Most designed for 450-470 on a hand-held scanner will do as well for RX to
512 MHz. Higher gain antennas are more critical though. A multi element
LPDA or Yagi could still be hand-held though if that is what you mean.
