Dan, Sounds as if you are looking for 2m/440 dual band antenna.
One question is how high. If low, less than say 150 ft then might consider Ham type antenna. The G7-144 is good performer for 2 meters, but cannot take falling ice. However, sounds as if some have had problems with Hustler although not much to be said for someone looking at a site for 12 years and ordering the antenna 3 days before install, hi. If antenna is high then get, as some have suggested, commerical grade. In some installs the high price of labor to replace out weights the higher cost of a good antenna. The longer dual band Diamond/Comet do perform well, but are cheaply made, but fit your price range. The stuff on the ground is most often easy to replace. The stuff in the air is often not especailly with good site. 73, ron, n9ee/r --- In [email protected], "Dan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I am looking for opinions on what antenna is good for repeater use that > are in the $200-250 dollar range.
