Help with rv antenna


A vertical properly mounted and grounded to the aluminum sounds like a winner. A SS 102" would probably work quite well with that much groundplane directly under it.

Great mobile install info at: k0bg.com

I want to put a cb antenna on my rv, but the entire rv is aluminum. What does anyone suggest?

Almost all tubular metal antennas are built from aluminium tubing. So what's the problem?

The main issue is not whether the aluminium is good for a RF ground, it's about the physical strength of the bodywork to support a mount with an antenna on it.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
