Here is my dual 4ft firestik tune tips



You can see how it looks from the front with my sig pic

 

penn college of technology huh? do you know mike rafter by any chance?

 

Can't say I do. I did look him up on facebook and I guess he has an older yellow dodge, but I have never seen it in the parking lot.

 

Wow it is amazing how a simple post of a cb can make a thread go! My antenna is on driver side 4ft firestick...oh and btw get a real CB? Mine works just fine for hunting and getting pass the mountains. I am not a trucker and my lil cobra does its job just fine thank you very much.

Look at my sig to see my antenna location.

 

Yeah yeah the uniden's are just fine for the occasional user. BTW that yellow dodge is for sale. He actually graduated last semester I believe.

 

Yellow dodge? did I miss something?

 

Yeah just talking about a buddy of mine's truck. Back to topic.

 

Yeah thats probably why then. I didn't bring my truck up last year because of how much my insurance jumped from being where I live now, then going to the city. This year I said the heck with it and brought it up. Haha, alright back to the topic now

 

I meant I had mine mounted the same way not that I had the same radio. Sorry for the confusion. I'm not sure which Cobra that is as I'm not great looking at pictures of them and telling which is which. I had a Cobra 29 with the nightwatch or whatever before this current radio and I hated that thing. Seemed like it didn't hardly reach far at all and I couldn't hardly understand anyone when they were talking on it. A lot of guys recommended the Cobra 29's to me. After I got it and said I couldn't hardly understand anyone I then had several guys tell me the internal speaker sucks and to use an external one. I didn't want to do that and kind of wanted some other things it didn't have. So I think I ended up selling it and losing $10 or $20 on it not much considering I bought it new. Anyway, after selling it I got a Superstar 121 radio and I love this thing. Soo much better it's not funny. I knew I'd like it as I have a few buddies that run the same radio.

Also like said about the "real radio" mine is real enough to do everything I need it to do. Can I talk to people 10 states over? No. Do I need to? Again no. For the little and I mean little I use it it does great. It's not often that the one in the truck gets used.

I'm not dissing your radio as I know it's a ton better than mine but honestly I don't need to have a radio that nice and expensive for what little I use it.

I do have a modified Midland hand held that gets way way more use. Also has an adapter that I can use to plug it up in my truck to the truck antenna but I've never done that.

 

This is a older picture but you can kind of see part my antenna in that picture. It's a Wilson 1000 magnetic mount.
