Cascadia Antenna Solutions

I had an 18" made ages ago for the volvo i ran..Dont remember how good or bad it was but i ended up with a single coil on a 22" but 45 degree is too much..

 

Just FWIW, I'm running a 2015 Cascadia with integrated antenna and original factory coax/hardware. Had a guy check the SWR and it measured 1.5. Not good, but better then I expected.

For me, it's not worth the expense and hassle of adding a custom antenna just to get more range that I really don't use or need.

 

A dummy load gets you better than that but doesnt transmit squat..
Yeah if your happy with a cpl miles leave well enough alone..

 

Kind of like a wide banded antenna

 

It's kind of hard to use what you don't have,
But it's lots of fun experiencing something that defies most people's logic or experience

 

My cascadia had 2 antenna on the back of cab wall...put my mfj on it to see..lol i just unscrewed my mfj and put it away lol

 

works just fine for me it's sold as ground wire.... autozone orielllys and discount auto all sell it in the battery section.... #### gets a little too anal on here for me sometimes........ ..................

 

Thats strange I have a 2016 Crapcadia with integrated antenna and my swr read 3.0+, guess each truck is different, but even it was a 1.0 range is still only a couple of miles if lucky.

 

I'm at 62 inches antenna only 9" shaft. I could take a predator/funky made/Browning and get the same result...bet it up

 

true dat
