Review: Sweet GMRS Antenna that Works VERY Well - I was skeptical regarding claims of this antenna's improved range performance for GMRS radios. I WAS WRONG. This is a sweet little antenna with a LOT of range. I don't know what TIDRADIO did to get this right, but it outperforms my other GMRS antennas in both range and clarity. The radios we're using (Baofeng UV-5G) might have helped that performance, but I'm still giving the bulk of the credit to the TD-771 antenna. Did I hear you ask WHY I bought these replacement antennas? Well, whether you asked or not, here goes the story, with a lesson for all GMRS radio buyers: >> We purchased a 2-pack of UV-5G GMRS radios from desertcart. I presumed they were being shipped with GMRS-tuned antennas. I WAS WRONG IN THAT ASSUMPTION!! >> I was a little disappointed in the UV-5G's range out of the box, so I first swapped in the package-included second antennas, and was still disappointed. So, I started looking closer and GUESS WHAT?? They had sent me ONLY antennas rated for 2Meters (both the OEM shorties and the replacement longer whips). It was clearly imprinted right in that area surrounding the part of the antenna that screws into the radio -- you know, the part you rarely look at. >> So, I was upset -- seems that if you're selling a GMRS radio, you should be selling a GMRS-tuned Antenna with it, right? Doesn't seem like too much to ask. And if you're including a 2nd antenna for each radio in the package, it seems to me that one could reasonably expect those antennas to be GMRS-tuned. THEY WEREN'T! >> Anyway, I turned to YouTube in search of a reasonably-priced solution, and came across this TD-771, which was HIGHLY recommended by several YouTube channels devoted to Ham Radio things. >> When we got them out and started testing the TD-771 antennas, I was surprised (but gratified) that their performance lived up to the hype!! I was getting clear conversations with users that my wife's GMRS radio connected to a quarter-wave magnetic mount antenna on her vehicle's roof simply couldn't hear as well. In fact, one of those users actually call my wife to let her know that indeed, I had been MUCH clearer transmitting to them than she had been with the fancy vehicle antenna. BOTTOM LINE: These antennas perform extremely well and are well worth the cost. In fact, they're a bargain! >> I don't think these will stay low-priced for long, so if you're on the fence, order now. If they disappoint, you can send them back to desertcart (but watch out for any return deadlines). DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN HONEST REVIEW!!! I wasn't paid by anyone, anywhere, anyhow for this review. I'd never even heard of TIDRADIO or the TD-771 until about two weeks ago, when I heard about it in YouTube reviews. I purchased these antennas with my own money, and I'm not getting reimbursed in any way, shape or form. I've never talked, emailed, chatted, or in any other way communicated with ANYONE at/from TIDRadio, EVER! However, I am now definitely a new fan of TIDRadio!
Review: Great Performance - Works great. Much better send and receive than stock antenna. Great price too. Fast shipping.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Performance
*by M***. on November 11, 2025*

Works great. Much better send and receive than stock antenna. Great price too. Fast shipping.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but could be better
*by S***E on January 17, 2025*

It is working fine but not for all frequencies. I am still looking for an answer regarding this issue. Seller has no clue... The antenna is well made. Works very well on most frequencies I am using. You can feel a better range switching from that shorter antenna that came with my Walki talkie. The price is very good for 2 antennas in the package.
