Ed Fong DBJ-2 — Commercial / GMRS

Pack a deployable antenna in your vehicle or communications kit.

The commercial-band Ed Fong DBJ-2 offers a compact antenna option for compatible GMRS and commercial radios. Unroll it, hang it vertically in a clear location and connect your radio using the included extension cable and appropriate adapter.

Its roll-up design makes it easy to carry, while the separate antenna and cable give you flexibility to position the antenna above your operating location.
