My radio came this morning, Its the Intek H 520 as discussed, also got a 1.5 meter magmount for the van, waiting for the Albrecht 2ft ft long rubber duck to come to improve the range when used as a walkie talkie.
Scanned UK and EU frquencies no traffic at all so far.

The antenna size is all to do with the frequencies. It has to be some multiple of the standing wave or whatever. PMR radios are 3 inches or so, CB is 3 ft and ELF are 100 miles.
Mine is 8 inches and so is the OE rubber duck that came with the H520
