Tried out the Nagoya NA-771G on my GMRS handheld. It’s a lot longer than the stock antenna, but it actually works. Definitely getting out farther and people say I sound clearer.
It’s supposed to be tuned for GMRS and from what I can tell, it is. SWR looks good.
Only thing—it’s kind of long for carrying around, but for general use it’s solid.
Anyone else using this one?

If you're a GMRS user, come on in — share your setup, ask questions, or just hang out with fellow radio nerds. And if you've been thinking about getting your ham ticket, this

Whether you're out hiking, commuting, or just monitoring repeaters from the garage, what's the HT (handheld transceiver) you always have within arm’s reach?
Post a quick photo or tell us what you carry and why it’s your go-to. Even better if you show it in the wild! Clipped to your pack, running APRS on the dash, or keeping you company on the trail.
Let’s compare gear and maybe get some new ideas!
Once a year, ham radio operators across North America grab their gear, pitch tents, and fire up their radios for one of the most exciting events in the hobby: **Field Day**.
Whether you’re a new Technician or a lifelong Extra, **ARRL Field Day** is your chance to test your skills, show off your setup, and connect with fellow operators. It's also a great opportunity to help your club earn points and introduce the magic of amateur
