Scanner Antenna Lenth Tuning to 1/4 Wavelength Question ?
Best scanner antenna I ever found was a discone mounted high, ~40 ft.
above ground. I was able to pick up much traffic from even surrounding towns and cities ... not perfect but provided more than was needed. ===================== Agree with that . I even use my discone antenna for transmitting on 144 -146 MHz (local repeater + Packet BBS) Advice : If you live near salt water get a discone anttenna in stainless steel to prevent corrosion.
