Definitely worth buying.  I had two basically worthless collars. Slapped a tuff skin antenna in each and was able to have full service on each collar at exactly 1 mile

Dont want to hurt no bodys feelings but facts are facts the long range antennas from double u suck they frayed,one broke in half and the ohers cover came off and broke at the eye . Got the ones from konkys and they have lasted twice as long and still in good shape.

Well worth the money. Range went from .8 to 1.5 consistanly. I got the tuff skins on collars and extended range antenna on handheld. I got 2 collars and 1 handheld antenna for 30 bucks I think off eBay, delivered to my door.
