    FT-2800M

    The 4 foot ones are the only ones I have ever used but longer is better so a 5 would be better.

    Bicycle Install. Please Help

    I have seen fire stiks have good SWRs on little to no ground plane. Try one of them with the tunable tip and see what you come up with. If it was me and I have thought about doing it I would go the CB route. VHF at high power is not something I want next to me. An HT would do the job for MURS...

    murs base

    Go for it you will be happy with them! There is an antenna company called centerfire that makes antennas for MURS. We have a bunch of guys using the quarter wave ground plane they sell and they work very good.

    murs base

    If your having issues with programing an opened up two meter radio would work well. I run a yaesu FT2800M on MURS in the mobile and a Motorola mobile on the base. Power will not go as low as two watts but I dont worry to much.
