The 1st and last would work ut they are cheaply priced,quality or crap?
Being teliscopic an all doesnt that change the recieve like a normal cb ant type deal(swr,resonance ect)
I just want something thats more geared to cb band -
I use the middle antenna because a counter is used up close to the radio unless I use a ring pickup on the so239. -
Yeah the one that comes with it has to basically be on top of the antenna..I have seen a cpl vids where user was like 10ft away and still getting their radios signal..
As of now i basically have to have my counter/signal strength meter sittin next to my ant to read anything...Thats why im looking for a better ant..
Wish i could find the vid again...Surfed last night till my eyes were buggered up and i only got 3 hrs in the bunk instead of 7..Last edited: Jun 2, 2021
