Highlander,

you're right these are excellent little radios and are fine just with the supplied antennas. Additional antennas are useful if reception is marginal and you know what to buy.

I've found most flexibility is achieved by having BNC converters to both SMA male and SMA female connectors. Then aftermarket antennas are specified with BNC bases. This means that all antennas will connect to all radios. This lesson I learned at high £ cost :-)
