This is a 5/8 over 5/8 on 2metre a mobile ant . This might sound mental, however it will work on 28mhz as a full 1/4 , you might (will need )ground plain . Yes this diamond nr22l is a fabulous 2metre mobile ant . But a killer 28mhz mobile ant . I use this ant on top of my van on a ladder rack .I also use a outbacker outreach 160 - 10 metre which is 3metre long on that rack on top of the van . No it doesn't look ridiculous, it looks very very fabulous.
very smart move to improve your antenna before radio
You read watts on the top scale and SWR on the bottom scale. Your SWR is about 1.15. Not bad at all.

Wonder how this works at receiving the railroad bands 160mhz
Yup looks good
What are you using as a ground plane?.
You can get a diamond cp22e for cheap and would be easier to install because it is a base antenna
$65 on amazon. Not bad. Ill keep that one in mind.

Stop smacking your lips. It is not a full wavelength, either.
