You can use a Wilson 1000 as a base antenna IF you put a car sized
ground plane under it,


Not a problem.
It is possible to carefully position your car so that you can stick the
magmount on the trunk...

Hehe, wouldn't that be somewhat directional?

Actually, the entire car is used as a ground plane. Why do you think 1/4
wave ground planes have 9' radials? Just to make them look cool? By your
theory, they could get by with 3' radials.


I've got news for you... the radials you speak of... and a solid 3'X3'
sheet of metal are two different animals. The surface area and shape of
the two is vastly different... or haven't you noticed that... LOL

3' X 3', huh Brian? At 27Mhz? Is this some sort of magic sheetmetal with
superior RF characteristics you've patented? Glad to see you are not
building antennas.


That size piece of metal should work just fine... how big do you think
the roof of your car is where it normally sits... not much bigger.



Three feet square? What do -you- drive..... a hot-dog cart?



LOL!!! Geo Metro?

Maybe, but will a cb radio take kindly to 'your' math?

27 sq. ft. 'might' be a slight improvement.........

You do not measure a counterpoise in square feet.
