I read in the marine catalogs about marine CB antennas designed for boats
and not to be concerned about a ground plane.
Anyone know the answer?
Hi Scott,
It could be a half-wave antenna (or jimmied to look like one) and it
counts on the cable feed to act as the minimal counterpoise to work
against.
OR
It could be outright baloney about not needing a ground plane.
CB does not have the reputation for marketing to the savvy.
