I'm a newbie upgrading to a 3GHz scanning system so I'm no looking round
for recommedations and feedback on antennas that perform up to 3GHz. I
would rather spend extra for a professional level antenna than go for a
cheaper option. The AOR DA5000 looks good but I'd appreciate any tips
before I start shelling out money. I'm currently scanning with a D130
discone which works well but it only goes up to 1300MHz. Thanks for any
advice.

You will be lucky if you pick up ANYTHING worth listening to above 400Mhz

hey thanks for your really positive and constructive comments Rog. I
didn't ask for advice about what's available in the upper spectrum, I know
what the score is there so let me worry about that. With an attitude like
yours maybe you should just stick to your transistor radio.

you would hear a HELL of a lot more on a transistor radio that you would up
in the 3GHz your waffling on about,
