Best antenna

[settlep]

What is the best CB antenna that wont break if you need to park in a garage often? I think the wilson whips will bend and break so dont really want to go that route. Any ideas? Radio is a small inexpensive cobra or big uniden which ever I decide to use.

If it's a car.. I would use the Wilson 1000 trunk month. Wilson sell's Whip's from Small to 69". Best of Both Worlds. Small and Big....

What they said, heck you can unscrew the coil on a Wilson 1000 or 5000 real easy.

if too big get the "little wil' " although the little wil can be hard to tune SWR's

but get the 1000 and you wont have to upgrade till you get some BIG power

I'm a newbie. What does this mean?

 

[freecell]

lil' wil is the product trademark name....little wilson and it's a magnet mount. great for beginers in the 30 - 40 dollar price range.

 

[deadgoon42]

What about the "tune SWR" part. That's the part I didn't get.

If you want a mag mount the only antenna to get is the Wilson mag mount but i would not waste my money on a little wil. Or you can try a 102 steel whip. I don't know what kind of car or truck you have and you may not want something that tall but you will really have to work at it to bend it!
