I have noticed it does about the same or worse than the rubber duck antenna that came with my Uniden Bearcat BCD396XT.

Getting beyond the looks

I am trying hard to not like this antenna, and on looks alone that would be easy. This antenna is a mighty beast...but, when it comes to reception, so far, it is one of the best I own. Head-to-head against the Watson Super-gainer the Condor is best up in the 800 mhz getting better signal and clarity at greater distances. The super-gainer is slightly better at VHF reception. Overall so far so good.

another not so tough review

Owned the Austin Condor 2-3 years, used on a 396XT worked great until recently. The 396XT would only receive sites when I was within 1/2 mile or so and it was poor and scratchy. I was frequently switching between the Austin Condor and a mobile mounted antenna so perhaps the SMA connector on the antenna broke internally. Went back to the stock portable antenna.
