I have an old mag mount RS CB antenna with a 24" (approx.) telescopic

If it is 24" long, it has a coil somewhere. That coil is designed to
handle 5 watts AM. It might handle 30 watts SSB but probably not 30
watts FM.

On such a short antenna, the whole thing may be helically wound.

Is there such a thing as a telescoping helical antenna?
