Sorry what I meant was left to right not forward and back. Its mounted on the rear quarter panel so when looking at the back of my car its at the 11 1/2 position if you consider my center of vehicle 12 oclock. So a slight bend at base will bring it straight up from my car

Where my antenna is mounted it sticks out at an angle from my car. Can I bend the antenna near the base about 2 degrees to get it to go perpendicular to my car?

Yes this is the spring. (Pic 1) What I meant to ask if I can use this? I ordered a new antenna. (Pic 2)The old 4700 had a spring (pic 1) I wanted to swap the spring onto the 2700 cause it looks nicer and someone said I am getting a head of myself and it might casue issues. I figured it was only...
Can you adapt a Mototola speaker with a molex connector typically found in police cars over to a 3.5 mm Jack plug for a regular cb? I believe they have 6 and 13 watt models.

I really dont like the look on top of the roof. On the two antennas I had (magnetic mount center of trunk lid) I hsd to trim about 3 inches off a 40" hustler and about one inch of the same size lil wil. The spring just looks nicer (tapered down) versus a rod coming out of a big stubby. I will go...
Anyone? Also do they make a 90 degree mic adapter. My mic comes straight up from the front and my arm hits it. I would like to have it at a right angle.
What does a 6 pin mic have over a 4 pin other the 2 pins? Am I losing anything using a four pin adapter?

Oh and here is a pic of the grounding strap. Its only on one side should I add another or wait to see what my swrs are?

I am sure I will have to trim the whip so if I add the spring I will have to remove more on top end? This whip is thicker at bottom and tapers. Only whips I have had were all same thickness all the way up. Does the taper help? The spring is no extra performance it just help if you hit something...
Oh ok. Thats cool. Here is the new mlb2700 I just bought along with the 4700. The 4700 has a spring. Is that specific to the 4700? Can

Ok a braided grounded strap in my trunk. I will run a grounding strap/wire from the screw bracket to the braided line. If I run this grounded strap I still need to grind the paint off where the screws contact the trunk? What type of wire would you use? The wire will only be 2 foot or so. Lastly...
Thank you. Your the man. While I got you, As if I don't have enough troubles can I hook a cb and scanner to the same antenna? I have a bear tracker (Bear Tracker BCT2) that scans up 900mhz. I see many troopers around here that have a zillion antennas. Up to 2 maxrad long whips, up to 3 maxrad...
I have seen a few older black road devils Rd104e that do not come with the connector. Are these any better then the new red ones?

This is the antenna style I want. Should I buy the trunk lid mount that I linked above or will this mini 800mhz work? I realize I will need to get a mlb2700 now that I see it is a mlb4700.

Ok I took the antenna apart. The guy listed this as a cb antenna and even said he pulled it off a truck and the radio it supposedly worked with was a uniden pro520xl. Well the antenna insides says Mlb4700. Not 2700

Don't be afraid to insult me. Other then being a soldier and leo and am pretty stupid in electronics and such. I put the old mount back on thatbis supposed be screwed on to the body. Its a 90 angle with 3 holes in it. I tried grounding straigh to the battery. Good news and bad. The good: swr...
