Eric, We were serious in our questions regarding what do you want to
know about the 102 inch whip.

Many of us are amateur radio operators who use the 102 inch whip in a
variety of modes and on many frequencies different from the CB Band.

The 102 inch whip in your application will provide very good antenna.
However, your ground wave will be somewhere around 10 to 15 miles. The
antenna will not improve the ground wave. You may encounter some 'skip'
conditions but these are not reliable for communications.

The message is titled 102" mobile antenna. It should ring a bell about being
a MOBILE. That should ring another bell that makes you think it's for a
vehicle.
Suggestions were expected from people who have had experience with these, or
can say something about these type of antenna.

Is it that hard to understand?

But ok, I'll explain a little further.
I'm installing a cb radio in my jeep, and I will be in very remote areas,
therefore I considered the full quarter length whip.

Any suggestions on what antenna to get?

Thank you,

Eric

Yes, they exist. How's that?
