I've got a radio shack TRC - 452 (1980s model) 40 channel AM Mobile CB.
I'm running a Wilson Li'l Wil Mag Mount on my 98 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. (may upgrade to Wilson 500 or 1000) I have a Uniden Grant XL but it needs new Rf coils and retuning and alignment. It's in great physical shape. "Big Kahuna" wrote in message ... Greets. I drive across country twice a year in an '02 Toyota Camry. I was thinking that this time (next month), it might be fun to get a CB for the trip. I've been away from radio for ~20 years so I have no clue on current gear. I don't want an expensive, in-dash installation. But I don't want a junker portable either. And what's the best solution for an antenna these days (I know that makes a *huge* difference in performance)? Roof magnetic? Trunk magnetic? Something else? Obviously, I'd prefer not to have some rinky-dink thing that plugs into the cig lighter, runs a wire through a permanently open window to a badly matched (horrible SWR) magnetic roof mount and gets horrible reception, etc. Suggestions appreciated. de N6OEF |
