I'd get or make an 800 yagi( about 8 or 10 elements) and point it at the
repeater tower. You could build an 800 ground plane too.

Hi all,

I am looking for some plans to build myself a scanner antenna to
improve reception at home (Base). I am only interested in the 800mhz
trunked frequencies at the moment. I get no reception at with the
ducky and other mobile antennas I have purchased. To get the data
channel to lock in, I have to drive into town to pick anything up. :-(

I have :

BC 235xlt
100 feet of RG6 coax to the roof

Can you point me to some plans?

Many thanks!
