I wasn't trying to be rude in my previous post, but that is a BS antenna.
It's not your fault if you were uninformed and was talked into buying something that just isn't a good thing.
The CB community is rife with snake oil salesmen.
Go into any truck stop and look.
One of the most popular are those "ground plane" star rip offs. The vehicle IS the ground plane ( counter poise). No need for it and I bet they have a negative effect.
They will be in the store and in the lot on many trucks.
I didn't mean to ridicule you, if I did, sorry.
The selling point on an antenna like that is, to the uninformed, it looks complex so it must work great.
