Building a home listening station?

Start with the supplied antenna. If you're inside a metal-sided building, down in a basement, or trying to receive a distant county, changing antenna placement or upgrading the antenna can make a meaningful difference.

Take a look at the ProComm Home Antenna or select a compatible antenna in the options above. Reception depends on location, frequencies and installation.

Mounting it in a vehicle?

The included bracket and DC power hardware are designed for a more permanent installation. GPS location tracking is supported, but the GPS receiver is not built in.

For automatic location changes while driving, consider the Uniden Universal GPS. You can also select compatible accessories above.
