DC ground mobile antenna

Sounds like a quality antenna. I'd go with a NMO mount on my pickup if there was a decent antenna that would work on one. That antenna is a little short for my taste, about 5ft is as short as I like to go.

 

The Larsen NMO-27 is 48”. I haven’t come across complaints (on non-CB forums). It’s what I plan to use on the roof of my Dodge pickup.

Granted, taller may be better, but low-key (relatively) has its place.

The two pilot car drivers I’ve talked to with them were happy enough, and they sounded great.

At present, I’d bet it’ll sound better than all but the large cars with well-done systems.

As to the model referenced by the OP, placement is everything. That’s what to investigate ahead of buying & trying.

 

I bought a new Wilson 5000 roof mount for my pick-up.....if I ever get around to mounting it! I've run Wilson's on my pick-ups for so long, with great success, I'm doubtful I'd be pleased with anything else. I am concerned somewhat of all the negative things I've heard about Wilson quality since they sold out though. I do run a little power thru the coax at times, I'd be pushing the limits with the Laird antenna. If memory serves, the Larson won't take much either.

 

I’ve liked the Wilson on mine. Triple mag mount.

The Laird will take 100 or 200, can’t remember which.

 

A triple! I ran the Wilson 5000 mag-mount until I could get time to drill a hole in the roof. Even at speeds up to 90mph, it never moved. I was traveling in my pickup a lot then late at night going back and forth to work, and high speeds were the norm. Cops were all in bed and it was a 120 miles to the house and a nice soft bed!

 

I had a couple of weirdo antennas. One, a Signal Engineering Golden Rod. Lots of drag.

 

I've had great luck with Wilson mag-mounts on my steel-bodied personal vehicles, specifically a 62-inch 1000 on a big pickup and a 56-inch 500 on a Mazda. They seem to get out there as well as anything, and hold on like they were screwed in.
