Ground Radials?

I've heard mixed results in the past, but nothing on it recently. Do they still sell that conversion?

I don't know that it is something that I would actually pay for, if I wanted a 5/8 wavelength antenna it would be better to simply get an antenna designed to be an actual 5/8 wavelength antenna, and not try and force something else to act like one.

Bells CB sells it.
