I, too, have a FT60.
Just bought the antenna below.

I bought the SRH77CA, which has the SMA connector that scanner uses. I have the BCD436HP, and it's a nice scanner.
The antenna also works better than the rubber ducky on my Yaesu FT-70D as well, since it's tuned for 2m and 70 cm.
Crap! You probably need the SRH77CA. The one I posted is a BNC connection. You need a SMA connection. Sorry about the bad info there!
Thanks I looked at your site. The company that makes the unit told me the frequency.
Based on the range that it does work at, I will need another 100 feet. However, I can probably get a LOS connection. So If I wired the base station to https://amzn.com/B00EC804SO, and then I put a https://amzn.com/B00K1JJWFO antenna on the intercom, and I set the YAGI to have LOS with the intercom antenna.... Can I use RG6 for the base to Yagi or should I use RG59 ?
Hey, 15 year old USA high school student here, i'm prepped and ready to go and i'm getting my technician class license this saturday, and i'm looking to buy my own radio now. Unfortunately my budget's pretty small (a little over 200$) and i've got about 0 knowledge about what to look for in a good radio.
I don't need too much, as the nearest IRLP node is about 25 miles away and that's all i'll really need. I was considering copying my best friend's setup, which gets him well to the node and the local countryside, which is a Wouxun KG-UV8D and one of these antennas
However, i was wondering if for the money there's a much better option (In either radio or antenna), or if i should save up for something with more power behind it. Portability is a big concern for me, so i do quite like the idea of handhelds, but i've heard a lot of people say they don't perform well in any way by themselves.
