I use antennas like this one and its "Big Brother" the 8' (co-phase) version. They tune up well enough to be used on 2 m (144-148 MHz Amateur Radio Band) a-well-as on 70 cm (420–450 MHz Amateur Radio Band). I run up to 50 watts without damaging the finals in my transceivers and more power with external amplifiers. GMRS and FRS have many channels at power levels of 5 w and lower, but some are as high as 50 w. Don't be fooled by thinking that SWR readings are an accurate measure of how useful an antenna and transmission line system are. The gain you achieve with a 46" antenna (in this case) should far outweigh the losses of the mismatch (as shown by higher-than-normal SWR) versus a 6.3" plain whip intended for GMRS/FRS use. I don't gamble, but I would be willing to bet money that people in-the-know (experienced radio operators, techs, and engineers) are using similar antennas successfully. The seller cannot recommend that you try using this antenna OOB (out-of-band) because they would then be liable if it didn't work well for you or damaged your equipment. You might even try a split ferrite bead about 6 or 7 inches down the coax from the antenna. It should serve to lower your SWR to protect your finals and may even improve performance. Bottom line, this is a $40-something antenna. I think you can probably shell out that much for an experiment. Worse case scenario, sell it on eBay for just about what you paid for it (if it doesn't work well for you). **Q: why does this antenna require a battery?** A: It does not require a battery. The description is wrong. **Q: Does it work as FM antenna with the combination adapter?** A: Yes you can buy a splitter for your FM reception needs **Q: Will this work with a uniden um380bk?** A: Yes it will. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VHF marine antenna *by J***S on May 29, 2025* Very good range. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍😃 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great price *by R***6 on May 13, 2025* best buy i could fined , great deal ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon is amazing for shopping for quality products *by E***. on December 19, 2024* I will recommend this item to anyone who asks ## Frequently Bought Together - Tram 1607-HC Pretuned VHF 3 dBd Gain Marine Rachet-Mount Fiberglass Antenna, 20 ft.
