'Just bought an maycom fr-100 with the rubber duck aerial.What mobile aerial can i replace it with to get the best possible reception.At the moment i get some ok reception from teesside airport and some bad.Newcastle approach 30 miles away vary from decent to awful.Can I buy something to improve this.'
Just about anything is better than a 'rubber duck' type aerial which is really only any good for 'on site' listening, even a telescopic whip type aerial will offer greatly improved performance. (In fact a piece of wire about 22 inches long for VHF airband attached to the antenna socket will offer great performance when out and about).You mention your after a mobile aerial, do you mean for fitting to your car? perhaps another reader could offer some recommendations on that.
You can find airband books here.
