ok so I made a reduced size ground plane for cb, Im moving in the near future and have no idea how big the loft will be, or if it will even have a loft, Im using a 9 ft tank whip with 4 9 ft wires at the moment but I want something compact so I have ordered a sirio 4000 hp mobile antenna, and want to match it up with 4 1 meter steel rods, loaded with 6.5 ft of wire and just over two foot of rod sticking out, will it work ok and also how many watts do you think it would handle with the thin gauge wire, also when I take my tank whip out of the loft im thing of cutting at 7.5 feet and centre loading it, would the same idea work, 20150119_140336.jpg
