Title: Compact antennas?
Post by: Noah on August 03, 2008, 04:29:36 pm
I'd like to get a compact antenna that will work for my Wildlife unit, any recommendations?  Getting REAL tired of pulling the yagi out  >:(

Thanks, Noah

Wildlife makes a mini-antenna.  Also, Quick Track has a Quick shot antenna that would work good.

The quick shot works great... I can't tell the difference between it and the yagi so far.

I did hear of a bad 180 problem with someone who mounted the Wildlife system on it??????????

Good deal... best investment i've ever made in this sport.

Try it out against all your buddies systems and send me some feed back on the quick shot.

I have been using the quickshot antenna mounted with a Wildlife receiver since the first of April and have no complaints.  Close range it is a little more sensitive to a 180 degree signal (and quick track will tell you this) but it's easy by a little gain adjustment to figure out which way is correct.  The size, and the ease of unfolding and folding is worth it's weight in gold especially if you use your system often.


In the "Quick Track Service" thread above, there are a couple pictures of mine mounted up.

Mike (the owner of this board) is a quick track dealer and I'm sure could get you fixed right up.
