&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately we do not have any recommendations, you will have to see what is available though distributors or suppliers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which antenna is suitable for &lt;em&gt;you&lt;/em&gt; depends on which bands &lt;em&gt;you&lt;/em&gt; intend to be supporting. In general antenna size is proportional with the wavelength of the frequency it supports, if you make the antenna smaller you should expect a drop in performance at lower frequency bands. This is why the DK antenna is rather large.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Andreas&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
