Today I got an approx. 5 year old Cobra 29 WX NW ST SoundTracker for free because my buddies dad threw it out since he's installing a new in his semi soon. As he did throw it out I'm not sure if it works and I'll have to ask tomorrow after he gets off work, but I'm wondering how good of a steal I got with it. Also what is a good antenna to pair with it and should I go center load or base load?
