CB Antenna TIps
.
In mobile installations (cars, trucks, or boats, etc.), use a non-directional antenna
system for maximum transmitting and receiving performance.
.
A vertically polarized, quarter-wavelength whip antenna provides the most reliable
operation and greatest range.
.
A 3-way combination antenna allows you to operate all three bands (AM, FM, and
CB) with one antenna. However, it will provide a far
less
transmitting and receiving
range than a standard "single band" antenna designed for CB use only.
.
The shorter loaded-type whip antennas are more attractive and compact than the
larger full quarter-wavelength whip. However, the shorter antennas will not provide
the maximum transmitting and receiving range that is possible with the larger ones..
