    Another member here, baglock1 is/was also looking for someone to help check out his mobil CB. Maybe he'll check in on this thread and get something going for his radio/antenna too.

    Ridgewalker, after I posted about the spring, I realized exactly why I need it. I'm a bit worried about my antenna location though, so we'll see how it goes.

    I realize that the spring will add to the height of the antenna and affect the way it is tuned. I'm going to get a spring today so I'll have it when it comes time to tune.

    Got everything installed today. Looks nice. Now I just need to get it tuned properly. Install went better than I thought it would.

    HEY COPS! Some guy told me that it is illegal to use the PA (Public Announcement) portion of your CB. Now, I can't imagine when I would actually use it in public, and I wouldn't use it to road rage at people, but is it actually illegal? He didn't seem like he knew what he was talking about.
