I just found my Dads old Made in the Philippines Cobra. It hasn’t worked in 30+ years. I have a 29 in the Truck. Brand new in the box, Bought over 12 yrs ago for $59. And a chrome Astatic. Think I’ll hook it up. Haven’t really missed having a CB, for last 12 yrs..God safety tool though.

Most modern trucks have CB hook ups depending on your company, just get a Cobra 29 Lx, good unit and if you happens to have some free time around Walcott, Iowa stop at the Walcott CB they do good tunes and can help you get the best out of the radio and antenna set up.

I'm looking for a good mid priced mirror mount antenna for a cobra 29.
The truck antenna just sucks. -
feldsforever and Brettj3876 Thank this.

Most trucks are equipped with antennae and power posts for radio, this prevents drivers from hacking up trucks wiring doing their own less than stellar installs.

Ive removed mounts on Cascadias,,cleaned them up with penetrating oil which made huge improvement on the ground side.
Currently have Coronada with factory coax,,,replaced antennas with 3' Firesticks after the 5' antennae snapped off...it happens. Getting the mirror cover off is fun stuff,,,make sure none of the 4 retaining clips break
