It's a diamond, if your into ham; yknow what it is
Handheld Antenna Recommendedations
Heltec's SMA: 6$
For a decent, cheap antenna, handheld antenna, it works
Muzi Works: 13$
915mhz Whip, These are good but seem to have some varaition from each antenna.
Do Not Buy:
Cheap Ebay Whip Antenna
RR: These were terriable, 2.7 at 910.
RAIGEN 8dBi Antenna
Grumpy: "I think these Raigen antennas are worse crap then the Alfa’s", Horrible preformance even with LOS.
Any Bending Antenna (0-90 degree)
Nola Mesh: These antennas are okay when pointing stright up, but bended complely changes the antennna profile.
Signal Plus (Newer Models)
It seems the newer batches of these antennas are performing much worse than ones purchased a few months ago.
