I finally broke down and ordered this for my Uniden BCD996T-
Heartland America: Digital Flat Antenna
It is semi directional, but works great on 800 MHZ, receives 900 MHZ better than the antenna I was using, has better reception also on 150 MHZ and outstanding reception on all the 450 - 460 MHZ stations I can receive. Basically, I'm getting one more bar across the spectrum.
It comes with 5 feet of 75 ohm cable, a suction cup mount, a silicone (I think) pressure adhesive disc to mount on rough surfaces. Supposedly it has 5 dBi gain. I had a 75 ohm F connector to BNC and hooked it right up. I stuck it to the window right behind my scanner. It may be my imagination, but the digital talk groups sound better.
It costs $19.99, but I ordered it out of a catalog that had a $10 coupon and free shipping, but it still cost me $3.99 for handling.
