Hi all!
I am looking for any idea where to get factory made short VHF antenna for Astro Saber. Length must be 2..4". I know that performance will be poor, but this is not critical in my case. I agreed for narrowband antennas if they available in different bandsplits.

Re: Short VHF antenna for Astro Saber
There IS a very short VHF stubby, about two inches, and it's in the Tessco
catalog. However, it's only available last time I looked in the MX base and not
with the SF connector. I've used it and it seems to work fine in metro areas,
but again, no SF connector.

That is it. I really dont use it alot. I use a Visar VHF on my XTS when I carry the radio off duty. When im on i use the standard whip.

Re: Short VHF antenna for Astro Saber
Ok, thank you!
P.S.
A little unexpectedly that it costs more that 'hi-end' dipole (8505518V01).
