A friend is a radio tech, he did the testing. The SWR was well over 2.0 at the lower end of the band, but about 1.4 on the 440 portion, and 1.7 at 462.5625, 1.9 at the high end of 469.000
I also picked up a half wave commercial duckie with an SMA, way more gain, and an swr of 1.4 on 462-468.

I am sure airsofters will not use the Ham bands, heck most hams arn't even using the band either. In Toronto I can scan 6m-1.2 and never hear a soul. I have had a ticket since 03.

Current gear, ft847, Ft8900, ft90, VX7R, VX3, VX177 (5 of them)
