Thanks, nemo1 for your reply.
This antenna is a a rubber duck antenna. The seller on ebay calls the antenna 9dbi omni.

I do not think that I would need a ground plane with this type of antenna? I notice no difference in signal with this antenna. If I place the antenna next to my ear and lightly shake the antenna it rattles like something is loose or broken inside the antenna. I was wondering if the antenna is broken. I wrote the seller on ebay twice and he will not reply to my emails. l will not buy from him again and I am ready to leave negative feedback.
