True but you will git a better range. I have 9 GMRS 22 ch radios, iI use a 12 gauge wire about 1.8 F.T long and put that BAD Boy on the radio and Boy i git a lot better signal and transmit Farther. i put that home made antenna next to the one i took out of the radio and its small Vs the one i made . to make it work better and make it look nicer spiroll it up in the middel about 6-7 times. i uset to git 4-5 blocks in Town, over in S.T Paul MN now i git about 1.2 milles so i think its no bigdeal
True but you will git better range i have 9 GMRS radios, i use a 12 gauge wire about 1.8 F.T long, And remove the small one .lol and i git alot better range! i spiroll it around a pen about 5 inches above the radio it makes it look better to ^_^. try it i been doing it in S.T Paul MN i git only 4 blocks with a RAguler "EMR 1000 motorola " radio 1.5 watt . So i moded it and git up to 1.3 milles on it now i am happy but i say buy a "middland Base camp " radio about 60$ its a 5.0 watt radio}:)

I guess this is hint to add an external antenna...coaxial connection. Just remember what you use as an antenna must be resonant in the 462 mHz range

I once did that with a motorola radio but I didn't have to open it up like that.
What I did was that I bended the plastic antenna hard enouf that it came off.
With a good wire cutter I cut the metal coil off.

I agree with you. Why did the external antennas to sell. No mill produces antennas for this frequency specific.
