Do Not Buy:

Cheap Ebay Whip Antenna

RR: These were terriable, 2.7 at 910.

RAIGEN 8dBi Antenna

Grumpy: "I think these Raigen antennas are worse crap then the Alfa’s", Horrible preformance even with LOS.

Any Bending Antenna (0-90 degree)

Nola Mesh: These antennas are okay when pointing stright up, but bended complely changes the antennna profile.

Signal Plus (Newer Models)

It seems the newer batches of these antennas are performing much worse than ones purchased a few months ago.
