Diamond SRH77CA 2m Antenna

 


Diamond SRH77CA 2m Antenna

I usually use this one with my Kenwood TH-D72

It's a nice antenna that I have used for 2m voice through the ISS.

Diamond SRH320A Triband HT Antenna

 


Diamond SRH320A Triband HT Antenna

2m/1-1/4m/70cm

I use this antenna on my Kenwood TH-D74 It is a SMA connection. I use a SMA to BNC adapter on the radio and a BNC to SMA adapter on the 320. With the two adapters back to back, it still appears normal. The Diamond BNC adapters are black, low profile and look great as well as preserve the small SMA connection.

My experience is limited but I've used it for APRS through the ISS. It works well as an upgrade to the stock antenna.

As I gain experience with the TH-D74, I'm sure that this will be the antenna that I will be using the most.

Diamond RH77CA HT/Scanner 2m/70cm + receive up to 900HZ Antenna

This is the BNC connector version of this popular hand held 2m radio antenna. I've choose this one quite a bit for general use for 2m, FM radio and I will try it sometime for APRS and APRS through the ISS.

Diamond RH519 HT Antenna

I purchased the Diamond RH519 HT as a replacement to the standard antenna that comes with the FT-3D. Again, it is the BNC version to facilitate the ease of connection and disconnect. It's an all around antenna due to the short length. It's also lightweight and petite. It seems to work well and it is the antenna that is usually found on my little Yaesu.

Diamond RH3 Mini Antenna

I often will monitor a FRS channel at work and my FT-3D sits on my desk. I don't need to receive outside transmissions, just within a couple of hundred feet so I choose the RH3 as a compact alternative to the original antenna and is the BNC connector version to facilitate ease of connect and disconnect.
