Howdy Cruiser heads-
I am new to CB's, I have always used a magnet mounted antena and a entry level Cobra CB in the cig lighter for my trail use.
However, I came across a great deal on Ebay on one of the weather band wtx something with a front mounted speaker (my biggest complaint about the little guy was i couldn't hear out of it).
I am going to mount the CB in the dash where the radio goes, and move my CD player to the tuffy. I am trying not to miss anything on the install and was wondering.
What is the best way to hard mount an antena, I would like to mount it on a swing out tire carrier. Are there grounding issues?
Also, what kind of cable would be good enough? Signal, weather proof, long life... kinda clueless here.
Also, when you guys mount the CB in the dash hole, do you use some sort of trim ring to make it look clean and neat?
Thanks in advance.
