.... seek the answer to your question in rec.radio.cb for our "Good Ole
Buddies" take on that question, 10-4?

Actually, you may wish to see what they do there...

Warmest regards,
John

hello. I'm not a ham radio operator(yet) but was hoping I could still
get some help here. A relative of mine stays at a rv campground close
by me. Its maybe 2-3 miles if you drew a straight line from my house.

the campground is in a very low area. you drive down a hill for quite
a ways and it has a lot of trees all down the hill. cell phones rarely
work and break up when they do. I have tried a indoor 1/4 wave antenna
at my house with murs while I setup a 1/4 wave antenna on their car at
the campground and no luck.

Would I have any more luck on the cb frequencies? Anyway thanks for
the help
