- What is the difference between the FS4 and FS5?
- The FS4 is the 4-foot version and the FS5 is the 5-foot version. The longer whip generally gives more range but is harder to clear obstacles.
- Do I need tools to tune it?
- No. The tunable tip is adjusted by hand. You still need an SWR meter to check the reading as you tune.
- Will it work with my existing CB mount?
- It fits standard 3/8-inch stud mounts. Check that your mount and coax are in good shape and that the mount is properly grounded.
- Is it good for high-power radios?
- Yes. It is rated for up to 650 watts, which covers most CB radios and many amplifiers.
- Does it really reduce static?
- The static-reduction cap is designed to cut some ignition noise. How much you notice depends on your vehicle and wiring.
- Is it worth it over a stock antenna?
- For most drivers, yes. The fiberglass build, higher power rating and tunable tip make it a step up from a basic stock whip.
