I use 8 of these for my Philadelphia P25 scanners. They work very well. Pointing them at a single tower site brings the audio in much clearer than any antenna which can get a signal from multiple tower sites. They are light weight and very sturdy. I highly recommend them.

Yagi Antenna

I bought this to help with reception of the city FD. So far it is taking some fine tuning as to where to point it but it has helped some with the reception. A very good antenna.

Directional Antenna

The antenna works fine on my Whistler radios, however the reason I purchased it was to improve reception on my Uniden for the MARCS IP channels. For some unknown reason this BCD 996P2 works in only one sweet spot in my house and it does not matter what antenna I use. I sure cannot blame the yagi. I do live amongst numerous TV transmission towers.

Great solution for simulcast distortion problems

For the money you cant beat this antenna. Helped solve my simulcast distortion issues. Using a BCD996T I get great reception even on VHF from 15 to 20 miles away. I tinkered with it for a while by pointing it in different directions to get the best results before I mounted it in my attic. I would highly recommend this antenna.

You get what you pay for

I already have a great 800mhz Yagi from Scannermaster. But I like the 400-520Mhz too so took a chance on this. YOU get what you pay for applies here. The $139.00 Yagi blows this thing away on 800mhz. UPDATE: 12/22/2016 I moved the black transformer with the arrow to the BACK of the antenna where you can screw it on instead of that clamp. 800mhz came in much better in that position instead of the in the middle of the antenna. Just unscrew the wing-nut and change the position if you have simulcast issues in 800mhz.
