Antennas
- See our Scanner Antennas page for a large number of links.
- See our Scanner Accessories page for links on filters, splitters and preamps
- Picking the right coax for your setup is very important. As you go higher in frequency, the loss from a cheap cable can be significant. Here's a good page on the subject.
Filters
For those living in urban areas, putting up a good antenna (with the proper coax) can cause overloading. Sometimes this overloading shows up as pagers and other unwanted signals showing up in places where you don't want to hear them. These links show a few manufacturers that make filters for specific problem areas of the spectrum;
Preamps/Splitters
- A preamp should only be considered after the antenna and coax has been improved as much as possible.
