Jeff beat me to it. Right and right again. I have a buddy that ran one for several years. Not a bad antenna for 2m.
I see this antenna comes with radials ? Thats all I have is what you see , so I would say this would render the antenna useless without them ?
according to the instructions , there apparently is a ground plane kit that goes with it ? from the pic's it looks like it's missing a few things ? that's what made me wonder if it was useless without those parts or would it still work without them to some capacity ?
Well technically you have the Ringo Ranger version one antenna,

The one Jeff has posted is the Ringo Ranger 2
The version 2 has the radial kit
version one does not
It can be used from 135 mHZ to 160 mHZ
So if your not a ham you might use it for M.U.R.S.

Thank you Hamer , appreicate your time here. At least I now know that what I have is good to go. Not into shipping things like this but maybe Master Chief might have a cheap interest in it ? but then again , I haven't see him around for some time now. Thanks again.
That antenna will disassemble fairly easy and small, it would be an easy antenna to sell, just an FYI for ya
