Hey Irv;
I just purchased an ARC Freedom antenna for my new Motorola V300. It's
shown at:

I also purchased the necessary adapter to fit this antenna to my V300.
The purchase was made via DiscountCell. I'm truly amazed at the
increase in reception strength! The only downside is that the antenna
is a bit bulky for on-the-go use, but still this can be done. For
stationary use in an office or the like, it is absolutely fantastic.
Irv, good luck with your antenna search for your Motorola V300.
