Bingfu Dual Band VHF UHF 136-460MHz 13 inch Foldable CS Tactical SMA Female Aerial Antenna for Wouxun Baofeng BF-F8HP UV-5R UV-82 BF-888S GT-3 Handheld Ham Two Way Radio Walkie Talkie

I was originally going to put this antenna on my fake radio I got for my ghost cosplay but it wouldn’t fit so I decided to put it on one shoulder peice on my plate carrier and make it look like my mic wire is attached to it when it’s not really. But anyway it very good quality and it will work with a real radio. Definitely recommend for airsoft

Works good

I bought the 108cm variant (more as a joke than anything else, as its rather ungainly!) and it shows a significant improvement on my Baofeng UV-5R over the standard antennas - both the Baofeng OEM and the Radioddity RD-771 that came as part of the package, but then again it almost doubles the cost of the package!Compared to the stock antenna on my Yaesu FT-4X though I'd say the gains are marginal at best, maybe creeping around 1 step extra on the internal 's-meter'.Performance overall though seems acceptable at both 70cm and 2m - getting good radio reports from repeaters around 20 miles away and have done a few transmissions tests out to local SDRs (between 10-15 miles away) and it's definitely a nice clear signal at 5w on both the Baofeng and the Yaesu - and that's from transmitting from my first floor home office. Will definitely take it to any future SOTA activations, not just to get an idea of range but I'd expect it to be quite a talking point for anyone passing by!

Arrived in amazing packaging and I use it regularly to listen to my local airport frequencysTested it a couple times and the furtherst I've gotten so far is 15 miles

This is used on baofeng v5+ and it boosts the range significantly. I have used it on hilly land and got ranges of over 5km. It's easy to install and it great!

Product works great, extended our range considerably and has an easy fold ability for small CQB environments. I recommend this product

Absolutely useless!My dad and me tried to see how far we could communicate with our hams... I have this antenna and he has my other extended retevis 16".... we tried in the garden 1st and all was fine but then after no more 100 ft they went completely dead and zero transmission not even static come through!!I know the retevis one is good because I have picked up atc with it and numerous other people talking on the amateur bands but this one is silent on every channel that the retevis would pick up strong signals on! I'm returning it...
