Hi, This comet discone antenna works ok. I find that the SWR is more like 1.7 to 1, But I checked that on the CB band. It is average as a receiving antenna for my scanner. Being broad banded, it is a compromise in the first place. ( 1.7 to 1 ). I can tell you that 1.7 to 1 is not a favorable SWR, even and especially for receive. The further the SWR is from 1 to 1, the less you will hear. This antenna is average for transmit and receive just like any other discone antenna. I can hear scanner traffic on all the frequencies I use, but it could be better. It is of great quality otherwise. Mike.

Solid stainless and aluminum construction, works exactly as it should and keeps doing that for many years. Only reason i bought a second one is that the first one was burned in the Woolsey fire.
