Default Wilson 1000 Antenna Question


"Drifter" wrote in message
...
I want to connect a mobile CB radio to a power supply in the garage.

My question: Is it possible to use my Wilson 1000 as a type of "base

station" antenna or will I have to purchase an antenna designed just

for base station use?

Any tips and info will be greatly appreciated.



You could, but it would require a ground plane so large and cumbersome that
it would not be easy to remove the antenna to use it mobile again. You will
also get better performance from a base antenna.
