I'm reinstalling my Wilson stick fiberglass CB antenna after having removed it while doing some work on the truck. Previously it had been installed in the same place for years.
...now that I'm paying more attention I have a question regarding the ground on the antenna.
Should the antenna base be screwed directly to the metal mounting plate or should I be insulating it from the plate? (The mounting plate is grounded through the bumper to the frame etc)
Pictures for reference.
