Co-Phase tuning problem

Because most don't know the real truth.

 

I'll stand by my statement on the 102.

 

Morning Mike ...

Over all a 102 inch wip is the best CB antenna NOW THAT SAID at 2 meters a 5/8 will kick **** every time ...

At CB a 5/8 wave is 22 foot ....

 

Most CB antennas have 5/8 worth of wire in them, or close, but they are short, longer is better, thus the 102 whip. Russ tells me the Monkey Made 9, a 5/8 antenna, will shoot skip better than a 102 whip, take off angle is steeper, but it is nearly as long as whip....so once again, longer is better. Didn't you guys establish the Larsen is 1/4 wave? And it is short, the whip will out talk it....longer is better.....repeat after me!!!!

I'm going to bed soon........are you getting up to start your day?

 

1. It looks cool
2. It looks symmetrical
3. It looks like big rigs

 

I'm out at the Jail at 5AM ....

5/8 wave worth ofc wire wound on a 5 foot antenna is worthless ....
It looks good on paper but towork it has to be 22 foot long....
In efftet you have a 5/8 wave rubber ducky for CB ....
