    UHF Antenna

    Currently running a Laser 416R antenna (6bBi) with a GME 3100 UHF unit.

    Wondering if changing antenna(s) might be worthwhile?

    The RFI Industries city/county pack looks interesting, since city usage is part of my usage, as is freeway / long distance travel.

    Antenna is mounted off the side of the bonnet on the D4, courtesy of a Labtronx bracket.

    Thoughts?

    Unless your current antenna is broken I would not bother. Your current antenna will do the job.

    I've had same antenna as you (Lazer) for approx 3 years and am happy with it.
    My concern with the less flexible antennas is fatigue from corrugations, which I have seen happen even with the spring base.
    The spring base tends to be too stiff to damp the vibrations enough.
