Default Help with Antenna

i know i know. the factory one is a dual band 10" antenna (cb and noaa). i'm
looking for the ~27MHz cb band antenna that is approx 12-18" long. this
would have better gain than what i have now, but obviously not like a 1/4 or
1/2 wave antenna.

any suggestions on through-glass mini "loaded" cb antenna.

stations too. i am looking for a hi gain ruber ducky bnc antenna. can
anyone suggest one?


High gain generally relates to large size.

"Rubber Ducky" antennas are low gain compromises.

There is no such animal as "High Gain Rubber Ducky" [pun intended]
