Terrible SWR on 2m
Bought for a VX5R and tested on both FT817ND (SWR meter) and portable 50kHz to 3GHz VNA in SWR mode.It's poor SWR on 6m, basically unusable SWR on 144MHz to 148MHz (it's OK at about 155 to 160 MHz), but OK SWR on 70cm band (430 MHz etc). Inherently it can only work on 2m band if the 6m loading coil at the top is shorted, it's actually perfect on 2m if you strip insulation on the top coil mounts and fit a switch at lower end. Wire to top connector needs at leat 6mm spaced out from coil.The 6m loading coil makes bandwidth at 51MHz very narrow.

Works great
Boguththis for my Yaesu VX-5R, and so far, I'm not disappointed, seeing as the radio is tri-band, and so is this antenna, it works great, sturdy enough to stand upright, yet flexible anough, not to put too much stress on the antenna connection, providing you use it correctly..
