    I use one of the window mount antenna's. I only needed a CB for the trails so I wanted something clean. It works ok but the range is horrible and after testing it the range is even bad for just a trail setup.

    I had the Cobra 75-wx st as well... great setup. Clean and easy to remove.

    This time around I think im going to go with the midland so that I can remove it and use it outside of the vehicle as well: http://www.amazon.com/Midland-75-822...0340507&sr=8-1

    I also have the Cobra 75wxst. I like the weather radio option it has as well. I just wish I could make it monitor for alerts while in CB mode...

    For the Antenna, I have the Firestik Firefly 3' on a fender mount with a spring so it's less likely to get taken out by a branch in the woods. The best SWR I have been able to get is about 1.2-1.3, but it still seems to work pretty well. I might try a 4' antenna one of these days to see if I can get a better swr.
