not sure if it was directed to me, but I did post the mention of the arrow
FWIW: I have one, I LOVE it. it works like a champ for my purposes. I'm a noob too, but have to believe it's broad enough to work with what you are intending within reason. I've used it with base and HT's and it performs!
Yeah, I apparently can't quote right either.
One more question on this subject:
Arrow offers two models that appear promising:
A) "Dual Band 155/460 MHz - Search & Rescue" <-- is 460 close enough to GMRS and 155 close enough to Marine VHF?
B) "Dual Band GMRS & MURS - 152/462 MHz" <-- is 152 close enough to Marine VHF?
Which one would you go with?
Technically that's three or four questions, but I guess I'm really trying to figure out this: how close does my antenna have to be tuned to the frequencies I want to work with for it to be "good"? How for off of the listed frequencies will these antenna suffer a SWR > 1.5:1?
