Alot of people recommend the Firestik antennas. I think there was one posted for sale here yesterday.

I run a Firestik and havent had many issues but if I would do it again, I'd get a Wilson 1000 magmount.

Right. Get the Rierstik if you prefer to hard mount it onto your rig or get the Wilson 1000 if you prefer a mag mount. And make sure you get the antenna tuned to your radio using an SWR meter.

I hace a SWR meter as well, you can swing by over the weekend and we could tune the antena real quick.
