It is amazing how much range this antenna will add to a 5 watt handheld vhf radio (pofung UV-82) I stuck it on top of my grill on the deck (deck is 6 feet off the ground) and my wife was able to clearly communicate with me from my truck (45 watt mobile) at a google verified 9 miles over fairly level ground through thick woods and swamp. That is about three times the distance we could reach with the standard antenna.

The antenna has a chart that tells you what length to cut the whip to give the best performance for a given frequency. You cut it. It's held in place with a set screw and it works. The coax is a good length for a magnetic based antenna.

SWR 1.6 to 1.8 untrimmed on 2m. Excellent reception and it's not on a vehicle just some sheets of aluminum foil on the floor indoors. Vertical is thin, so I put a piece of duct tape on top to make it more visible. I'd have liked the ability to use my own coax though.
