Default Antenna Recommendation

Hello Robert:

I just leased a brand new 07 pickup truck, and I have a Mirage 6600 radio
converted for
use as a CB.

I have some limitations on antenna choices, such as I park in a parking
garage every day
for work. Not to mention that I don't want to scratch the paint with a
Magnet Mount
and sonce it's a lease, a permanent roof mount is out. I was thinking of
either a 108"
steel whip attached to the trailor hitch, or 2 fiberglass whips on each
front side of the
bed.


I'll bet a Wilson 1000 or 5000 will work just great.


I might get an amp later, so performace means alot also.

Thanks for your advice!


The Wilson 1000 or 5000 will take a little heat, it will help you get
out better. A 100 watts or so will work fine.
