No. 1 super scanner, no 2 PDL II no 3, Thunder8xb, no. 4. Astroplane, no. 5, Imax 2000, no. 6, Starduster, no. 7 Shakespeare big stick--Antron 99 tie. Could not judge performance of CLR-2 and Radio shack 1/4 wave base antennas as they were seconded-handed and broken when I got them. Someone needs to produce the Super Scanner again. Wilson 1000 is a fine antenna. Haven't tried 5000, sure it is great. Roadmaster mobile antenna good too.
