Tram discone replaces home brew discone due to better quality!
After years of making discone antennas from various plumbing parts and brass brazing rods, I decided to try the Tram antenna based on what I have read and the pictures I have seen of the quality assembly the Tram antenna has. Because, once this antenna is installed, I will not want to be endlessly climbing up on a second story metal roof to service it after a wind storm or bird landing! The fact that the Tram antenna uses stainless steel rods, nuts and hub assembly means no corrosion with good strength, and was a very big factor in choosing the Tram antenna over other name brand antennas, especially the antennas that use fewer rods, or poorer quality materials. While my home brew antennas worked very well, the rods would end up breaking from the wind or occasional large bird landing on it. I decided that due to age and other health issues, I do not want to keep climbing if I can avoid it!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Quality antenna
As a Ham Radio operator over the years I have retained and learned about antennas. This is an excellent wide band recive antenna. If you are specific about certain frequencies this antenna will work well but not as well as a specific 1/4 wave groundplane antenna made for what frequency you want to recive or transmit on . The utmost importance of this antenna is that it mounted outside and as high as you can manage. Vhf and Uhf radio waves are line of sight thus why higher the antenna is mounted the better you'll receive reception .Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A great antenna
A discone antenna is incredibly efficient and sturdy. I look for durability in the manufacturing process and quality materials. Tram is always great, never a disappointment. Full coverage across the entire ham radio and scanner frequencies. I am very pleased with the ease of install and the performance is wonderful.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great for VHF and UHF wide-band scanners
Quality is very good and this makes it an excellent value. (E-Bay $37.00 free shipping) I have several dis-cone antennas and this makes for a perfect attic antenna to compliment my multiple scanners. V/UHF reception is on par with my Diamond dis-cones. This antenna does not have the low band coverage nor the capability to easily add a vertical whip, yet HF-MW reception is fair. So... it's not designed for low band! Overall a super value and easy to assemble. Typically this antenna sells for approx $50 so if you can find it for less, you can't build a dis-cone cheaper considering it's made using stainless steel elements.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

1410 Tram Antenna Very high quality stainless steel, heavy chrome hub! well built
I was really happy with the quality of this Tram 1410 ant. well built out of stainless steel and the main hub looks to be maybe brass or bronze that has been very heavy chrome plated, I used a dab of dielectric grease when I assembled it, it was larger than I thought that it was going to be and I had to pick it up from the post office because it would not fit in the mail box. it is roughly 3 foot high and about 3 foot wide at the base, I installed all of the arms finger tight and then used a small wrench 9/32 the gently tighten the small lock nuts, I then installed the antenna on a 10 ft. high piece of 1-1/8 PVC pipe and locked down the 2 allen head screws that hold it to the pipe, I needed 100 ft. of low loss cable to reach my scanner now I am just waiting for my UHF to BNC adapter to get here from China so that I can hook it up and see how well it brings in a signal.....so far I am very pleased with the 1410 Tram...very well built!..I will write back to this review after I have tried it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Tram 1410 Discone Scanner Antenna
This antenna is awesome. I welded some bed frame angle iron together with a 6" piece of 1 1/4" pipe at the antenna end and clamped that to a metal fence post. So the top of the discone is 15 ft. up. I get police, fire, and ems 60 miles away and everything comes in clear and strong. I'm in Iowa and we recently got hit with a pretty severe ice storm and even that has no effect on how well it works. It was very simple to put together. I think the wind has zero effect on it. It pulls in all the bands my Whistler can receive and I couldn't be happier. Well worth the money.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Excellent Product
This antenna was easy to assemble and mount. It works very well for all of my scanning needs. Mounted 26 feet high on chain-link fence top rail pipe. Picks up VHF Lo/ VHF Hi / and UHF very well. I would recommend this antenna.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Woah! Awesome paired with RTL-SDR usb stick
I bought one of the inexpensive RTL-SDR's from Amazon. It came with 2-3 small antennas, and I had fun picking up a few things. But I really felt limited. After some research, it seemed like a Discone could be a way to improve the range of things I could pick up. And this thing is fantastic! I'm no expert, but I will simply say that it far surpassed my expectations. It was packed well, and is made from well-made parts. Would buy again.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A very well made antenna
This is the second discone antenna of this type that I have owned over the years. The first was from a national chain of stores and I was very satisfied with it but I left it behind when I moved. This one is actually better made. I am extremely happy with the quality, and I'm sure it will last many years.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
