The hardware from all of these suppliers is often less than great, so I feel its worth the $$ to replace (where you can) with ALL SS from your local hardware store. Mounted on a mast as a 10'-6" galv fence top rail from HD ($14), matched to 50' of low loss LMR400 Ultraflex coax (worth the $$), an in-line lightening arrestor, a Uniden Bearcat BCD536 scanner & a Pyramid PSV150 desktop 12/24V power supply. Couldn't be happier, would buy again. Review: This is one of those things that get tagged "Buy it right and once" - As far as discones go a discone is a discone is a discone. The differences end up coming down to the materials used in its construction and the design of how it's held together. I absolute admire this discone antenna. It has weathered some of the worst the northern midwest has to offer season after season extremes and done it without fail year in and year out and looks and performs as good as the day it was assembled and installed. Priced right and even priced better than some competitors that use less secure build design and far less superior materials. If your in the market for a discone there is no other that I would purchase as the whole point is to get it together and installed and not have to give it another thought and that is what this one has provided and the only reason it come to mind was I was catching up on my reviews and saw I had purchased it years ago. Then I remembered it was up there doing its thing seeing as I only see the coax end of it inside occasionally. ## Features - Ultra-wideband design 25 to 1300 MHz receive, 50-1300 MHz transmit (6m tunable for transmit) - Compact and lightweight design enables antenna to be installed on balcony railing at an apartment or condominium - Ideal for 2m, 1-1/4m, 70cm, 33cm and 23cm amateur bands - Excellent "shop" antenna for testing various transmitters on a single coax - Can be made further compact and lightweight by removing the top loading coil if 25-50 MHz reception is not required ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AR09A6I | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,289 in Radio Antennas | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (58) | | Date First Available | October 17, 2013 | | Department | Mens | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 2.5 pounds | | Item model number | D130J | | Manufacturer | Diamond Antenna | | Product Dimensions | 40 x 4 x 4 inches | ## Product Details - **Antenna:** Discone Antenna - **Brand:** Diamond Antenna - **Color:** Silver - **Impedance:** 50 Ohms - **Manufacturer:** Diamond Antenna - **Maximum Range:** 264 Feet - **Number of Channels:** 1 - **Number of Items:** 1 - **UPC:** 701630966529 701630966536 ## Images ![D-130J D130J Original Diamond Vertical Discone Antenna - 10m-23cm - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61hJNf0SUZL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does the top loading coil have the std 3/8x24 threads for mounting?** A: I measure the top loading coil thread mount to be an 8mm x 1.0mm metric thread (standard fine metric thread). The RF connector is an SO-239. Mounting pole is 29mm ID, 32mm OD. It appears to be completely metric dimensions. **Q: I want to run a splitter off this connected via 30’ lmr-400 to run ota dtv & sds-100. is this possible? what splitter?** A: Hi Aaron, It would be better to use a low-loss antenna switch such as the Daiwa CS-201. Switch the antenna to the scanner, or to the TV. If you want to use both at once, a splitter or multicoupler is needed. I suggest contacting the people at Scanner Master for their suggestions. **Q: What is the best cable to use for uniden scanners? (sds100) will it overload the scanner?** A: LMR 400 cable. No it won’t overload the scanner . **Q: How tall of a mast is recommended?** A: I used a Gable Antenna Mount and used two 5 ft sections for a total of 10 ft. 5 ft would have worked but 10ft worked better for my application. 5ft would be a good choice if using a Tri-pod Roof Mount. Just my opinion. Hope this helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well Made; WORKS!! *by A***. on March 14, 2021* IMO... a well made antenna, hooked it up and clearly brings in stations WAY far away....good easy to follow instructions.

Using this for public safety scanner/monitor. Temporary is inside with the top element removed (its only needed for 25 to 50 mhz.) Great reception improvement picking up simplex HT traffic almost 4 miles away. Can only get better when permanently mounted outdoors at 30' AGL. ## Frequently Bought Together - D-130J D130J Original Diamond Vertical Discone Antenna - 10m-23cm - RFAdapter RG8x Coaxial Cable, CB Coax Cable, 50ft UHF PL259 Male to Male Low Loss CB Antenna Cables, 50 Ohm for HAM Radio, Antenna Analyzer - Proxicast Coaxial Lightning Arrester/Suppressor with PL-259 & SO-239 (M/F) Connectors - Pro-Grade Coax Cable Surge Protector for HF, VHF, UHF, CB, Ham, Two-Way Radio and Other Antennas (ANT-234-002) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/18129349-d-130j-d130j-original-diamond-vertical-discone-antenna-10m-23cm](https://www.desertcart.us/products/18129349-d-130j-d130j-original-diamond-vertical-discone-antenna-10m-23cm) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
