Folks, i got this a few weeks ago, and cant say enough good about it, its the 12 inch slim duck. Its very flexible, and holds signal , no stress, like the telescoping, and much better then the standard antenna that comes with the astro. Range probably 30 percent, maybe more. I rarely drop the race and have to hook up the roof mount, may want to give it a try. I wont go back.

Sorry Someone Directed me here, Yes we do carry those.

We are also Carring a Short Rubber Duck Style that Goes on the Long Rang Hand Held.

That way you can have your antenna out and about without Worrying about breaking off the telescopic one. I think it works good for some of the Horse back folks that can hang the handle on the saddle horn

No problem, thanks, I've had them for about 6 months now.. Just hadn't put them up on the website.. It's only been word of mouth for a while on them.. About a week or two ago I finally put them up on the site.

The only beef I've had with smiley directly is they take a week or two to get them sent out..Not the best customer service out there. Seems like everytime I have to remind them that I put in an order and then in a couple days I'll get the shipment confirmation.. I was almost not going to carry them because of that, but they are popular enough, I just try to keep ahead of the curve and keep some inventory on hand...

Buddy
