Describe how you put it on the antenna little more... Anybody have any pics? Where would you buy the stuff for this?

Would that neon or mercury lamp work on a fiberglass antenna or does it only work for steel whip antennas?

wow...

I must be lucky cause I have less than 1/2 s unit of static. That is in Kansas and Arizona on AM in the mobile.

I am sorry if I was fighting this... I was just going by what I thought was good information on cbradiomag. I thought if a trusted guy like him had a whole article dedicated to it it was okay. When I had just started in CB radio I turned up my modulation pot just like the article said. I had...

Why would cbradiomag have an article for beginners to do this then?

Okay stop assuming guys. I never said squat about clipping limiters or peaking everything in the radio to a power meter. What I am trying to point out is... Settings from the factory are piss poor. Turning up the modulation pot and then backing it down to a clear level is just fine. Some...

So you are saying that if you have factory radio and have no shop in town or money to send it to a shop that turning the pot up then back it off a little is a horrible thing to do and it will wreck the radio?

Working on your own CB - adjusting the modulation

I didn't say anything about clipping the limiter. Turning the pot will only increase the modulation to 100%. CB radio magazine has a article just for beginners tuning their radios and he recommends it. Thousands of shops and people do it every day. Turning the modulation pot will not wreck the...

I have run barefoot for the past 4 years. That can't be it... I had good swrs around 1.3 when I got it. Now I have 1.9/2.1. Its not the mount cause my 10-k works great on it. So I may get another Wilson or try a fire stick.

Its not. 1.) Buy an amp and hookup kit. 2.) Put the amp in the vehicle, run the positive wire to the battery and the negative under the carpet by the seat bolt attach to the metal for ground. 3.) Hook you antenna to the amp and hook a jumper from the amp to your radio. 4.) Set your dead key and...
