Before deciding on the antenna, there are a few very important things you must consider. Your antenna selection is the most important factor in purchasing a UHF radio system. Where to place the antenna - Undoubtedly, centre roof location is the best, but maybe not so practical, or maybe you don't wish to drill a hole in you roof (don't blame you). For other locations such as Roof Gutter, Bullbar, Side of Guard etc., an 'Independent Ground' antenna should be used to achieve the best performance. Where would you be using your Radio - Remember the type of terrain you drive, whether you own a petrol or diesel is another factor in determining the antenna that would best suit your requirements. As a guide 4 - 6db gain suits general type terrain, 9db STRICTLY super flat terrain, 0-3db hilly/ mountainous terrain. Most times it's not practical to change antennas continually so I find 4.5-6db perfect for most situations. What type of travelling will I be doing? - e.g., General 4WDriving - Outback Travelling - Tarred Roads - these are all extremely important factors to consider before you make you antenna selection. Lakecomm's complete antenna range has been carefully selected to cater for all possibilities. For easy identification as to 'your' best antenna, we have identified each antenna with coding as shown below to assist in simplifying the task. More Technical Info - Click Here

Code 'A' Tarred Roads Medium Performance Light Duty Bullbar, (Petrol ONLY) Guard or Roof mounting

Code 'B' General 4WDriving High performance Medium Duty Bullbar (Petrol ONLY) Guard or Roof mounting

Code 'C' Outback Travelling High Performance Medium to Heavy Duty Bullbar Mount Suits Diesel Engines

Code 'D' Extended Outback Travelling Superior Performance Super Heavy Duty Bullbar Mount Suits Diesel Engines

You may ask, why do we suggest one antenna and not the other for
different purposes? All antennas have different physical attributes and are manufactured to varying standards. Our above recommendations have been based on what is known as the 'Vibration Factor' which is caused by diesel engines and outback corrugated roads - this vibration source will eventually fatigue the antenna and cause failure if the correct one is not chosen.
