CB and Antenna's

[AJeepZJ]

The CB itself really isn't the problem - The Antenna was the problem. It had a magnetized mount, which I placed, centered, on the rear of the vehicle. Problem with this is that it keeps getting knocked off the roof every time I go under a branch or sign or whatever. The Antenna is what is currently replaced - soon as all the parts show up.

I had the same issue with my magnetic mount. Then my radio started squealing. Sal and I screwed around with my radio for a couple of hours, it seems, only to decide that the problem was the antenna. I got me a Firestick and problem was solved.

Thanks AJ - this was very insightful. I know a CB is in my future plans at some point and I am one of the guys who thinks A CB+Antenna+Mount+Cable should be all set.

Looks like I am wrong - great post for noobs like me.
