Sorry, the direct E-mail bounced...here is text of what was sent in reply to the posting: The Antenna Specialists Co. manufactures M-906 that looks like a cellular antenna (pig tail coil). While these look cute, remember that any shortening from a standard 1/4 wave mobile will reduce the radiation resistance of the antenna and of course the radiated power drops dramatically due to the drop in efficiency. This means output power is MUCH lower than with a longer antenna. Talk distance is less.
