23 people looked at this so far and not one opinion? come on guys and gals it only takes about 1 min to reply lets get this board going.

honestly... i think its because people know its claiming some bogus things...
i mean it looks the same as a lot of other antennas, and looks easy to tune, that would be nice... but guaranteeing 2x the range of a store bought antenna..? how can you possibly advertise that... maybe "may operate better than this $3 plastic store bought antenna...." i hope it works out for you, who knows it may turn out to be the best one youve bought yet, or it could be the same as everyother one youve bought... we'll see.squirrellsgnwild Thanks this. -
Well thats why i asked for opinions. I want to know what people think that know more than me. Thanks alot THETEZ. Anyone ever tried an antenna like this or know anyone that has?
-
ah, someone asking for opinions really wants opinions... how odd.... and original... Ha,
well i know some homemade antennas can be pretty sweet, just as good as any store bought antenna. Their are so many ways to make antennas, i this guy found a way to make it look the way he wants and have it do a good job. Then awesome... honestly i think it can only be as good as any instore antenna... and it probably will be. Good luck -
I like the way it looks, you'll get all kinds of comments on it which will help pass the time. That is, if it works. I love my Predator though
-
Looks the same as the antenna sold in the truck stops and radio shack to me,, i had one that looked just like it, bought from a radio shop, had it on a ford bronco mounted off the side of the front fender, worked good for the radio it was hooked to.
-
I would pass on it... I know a few guys who make their own antennas and they sure would not look like one you would buy at a store... 2X comment should give you a hint that its a load of bull.... Honestly though I would simply have to try it out before i could tell you anything about it, but I assure you it will not get 2X better then a Striker or Monkey Made type antenna..
-
I really like the Monkey Made antennas too!
-
Let's see if I can pick out the part of the description that stands out to me. Hmmm......Oh yea!
Satisfaction guaranteed or money back less shipping!!!
If it's that good Guarantee it.
Completely.
Period.
