Cb Antenna Mount

[norsemanberg]

Well i found this mount that uses a stake pocket to mount your antenna and i figured how often do i use that stake pocket anyway so i installed it and here are some of the picture from the install.

I thaught some one would have said something about the #7 picture

What type of CB is that. I've been looking to add one to my chevy but my antennas will probably be mounted to the tow mirrors.

The radio is a uniden grant XL

Thanks, had an old cb handed down from m grandfather in my last truck. Still trying to figure out which cb and how to mount it and the antennas in the '06.

Why? Because you have a Springfield Armory in the center console?

 

I prefer Glock, Kimber, or Sig myself. But to each his own!

I didn't know anyone was still using CB's.

Good eye, Yep it's an XD9. I like the Glocks to but i like the XD a little more.

I would mount mine in the rear stake hole since mine is a crew cab and the cab may generate interference...did you check your SWR?

Yep, even with cell phones we still use them, I mostly use it when I'm on the high way for long stretches, it good to know where the next speed trap is or whats going on 5 or 6 miles down the road.

Yep, it's at the bottom of the scale on 1 and just under 2 on 40

nice, I had mine in the rear passenger stake hole because my SWR was high on 1 and 2. That is until someone stole the CB radio (kinda wish they had taken the OEM radio as well).

[norsemanberg]

I had some one take my antenna and mount. Thats why i had to install this one

Good install. Doesn't the radio get in your way with it mounted on the console like that?
