Nope, but that would be handy for those Gizmo quiz days when you just gotta be at the beach... ;)

TJ: you're on the right track

I'm looking for the particular type of antenna.

It's noted on the web site where I found it as:

Adjective Smallest ___ Antenna

See if that helps any...

Not for a phone 2odd. It's definitely a radio antenna.

Aaacckk! Dilemma, what do I do now?

DrDoc: you called it a radio antenna first.

I was looking for: SMA Antenna - but didn't know that it had so many other interchangeable names{!}, I chose it because it was small and tiny...

2odd: you found it and named it specifically...

So now what?

There's no question about it... Give it to 2oddsox. That was the most specific and detailed answer :)

Good gizmo!

No probs... the missus just told me we are going out next week, so if DrDoc wants to run with it, that's ok by me - but if he can't then I can still do it.
