    Yeah got all the info from him. He was "tired and had the sun in his eyes". Let that be a lesson to everyone,dont be afraid to get out and look G O A L. Celadon used to have that on their mirrors but this guys didnt. Celadon WILL pay one way or the other.

    My CB does not work as good as it used to now that I am in this cascadia.
    I especially have problems at the shippers. Yesterday at Sauder and at SDI, they could not hear me...but another driver said, he did not know what the problem was as he was two miles away and could hear me just fine.
    Any thoughts?

    Ive heard several Cascadia drivers complain about this. Its a grounding issue I think. People in a certain direction hear you just fine while others dont and Im guessing you are having the same problem hearing. The couple guys I talked to that had that problem fixed it by running their antenna off the back of the truck and running their coax under the truck and entering from bottom of door.

    I have been able to hear everyone supper clear. Does Maverick have a problem with us moving the antenna or do you just add another one?

    Just buy you a mount and coax then use Mav's antenna. The two guys setup I looked at bought a mount that they could mount on the cab fairing using longer bolts in existing bolt holes.
