I am considering a Laird brand Ultra Phantom antenna (450-512)on a Laird NMO Mini Magnetic mount for my upcoming mobile GMRS radio installation. I will be using a thin aluminum cable/cord cover painted the same color as my SUV to conceal the cable.
I've heard good and bad about the "phantom" style antennas but looking for input on this particular brand. Any input appreciated.
The low profile of the Phantom is needed around town, for garaging, etc. but I may get a 1/4 wave antenna and swap it out when getting out into the boondocks.
