Hey all,

I searched but didn't see too much information about mounting a CB antenna. Where are you mounting yours? What kind of antenna you using?

Thanks

 

well rite now i have a magnet one on my roof just threw it up there with the wire going out the back drivers side window.... on my buddies he has a back rack and duel antennaes i ran them under the cab and in then mounted the antennaes to the rack my other buddies with duels we mounted them on the front of the bed and ran the wires the same way except my buddy with a ford i found a way into the cab through a cab vent

 

iv seen some with dual firestick's i think there called, they are like 2ft long and you can mount them on each side of the truck right behind the cab..

 

yea they are called fire sticks and you can get them in a variety of sizes the 3 pairs ive installed on my buddies trucks are 4 foots

 

I have dual 4' fiberglass antenna's mounted on each side of the tool box. On the front of it, between the cab and tool box. Works fine, little high SWR since only about 1/2 the antenna is completely above the cab but its not up to 3 or anything.

 

i got dual wips on the mirrors. they are about 2 ft. got old brackets though. the only problem is that the wire i have going through the door and is pinchin the weatherstripping and lets rain in. so any ideas on where to reroute them is appreciated

 

you could put them under the hood and then through the firewall but i would reccomend a new mounting location... is there a particular reason you have them on your mirrors?

 

got the brackets free

 

is there a big enough hole for the connector to go through?

 

you could make a hole and then caulk around it if you wanted to
