  1. I have one of those but it is the version with the BNC connector. Bought it around 1996 from the U.S. along with some other items. Used it to listen to 800Mhz trunked radio (phones were mostly GSM 900 by then). Still have it but nothing to listen to up that high anymore, so it is part of the collection of radio curiosities now! I think you would have to be rather brave to go out in public with that on top of a radio!

  3.  @gorak9000  We had Type II Smartnet analog up until the early 2000's. Then it was replaced by TETRA digital. Now that has been largely switched off except for a few small private networks. Much of the 800Mhz spectrum is being absorbed by LTE. There has not been any P25 @ 800Mhz in this country as far as I am aware. Plenty of P25 trunking in VHF and UHF though.
