Default Newbie with a wire dipole

Greetings,
I've got me an RCA CB Co pilot 14T303 with a workman BS-1 dipole
antenna pinnes up in an inverted v outside my window. I recieve just
fine, but my transmit is horrible. I can't get a radio check from any
of the truckers up on the interstate (1/8 mi. from my house). I get a
barely audible signal monitoring from the other side of the house.
When I transmit I'm getting only the tiniest nudge on my s/mod meter.
Is my radio shot? of is it just the cheap antenna?

Any help with this dilemna would be greatly appreaciated.
