I bought a magnet mount cb antenna from radio shack. Put it up on my
suburban. At about 40 miles per hour it blew down and almost fell of

know, it's the only thing i could think of). Will this interfere with the
ground?

Put the base of the mag mount directly on the vehicle's sheet steel - or it
will blow off, particularly if whatever you put under it (like Velcro) is
thick.

I can pick up signals pretty well.(i think, this is my first cb, can you
tell)

You need to get a Itrucker-grade/i antenna - NOT a Radio Shack
mag-mount. It can be a mag mount - but it has to have a larger diameter magnet
(4"-5") for you to get out. It really makes a huge difference. So get over to
your local truck stop.
