- Do I need to tune this antenna?
- No. It is a passive antenna with a fixed booster coil, so there is no tuning or SWR adjustment. Just mount it and plug it in.
- Will the magnet hold at highway speed?
- It holds on flat steel for many owners, but some report it sliding or tipping in strong wind. Check the mount before long drives and keep the mast clear of obstructions.
- What radios does it work with?
- It uses a standard CB antenna plug, so it fits common CB radios with that connector. Check your radio's antenna socket before buying.
- Does it work on fiberglass or aluminum vehicles?
- A magnetic mount needs a steel surface to grip and to act as a ground plane. On aluminum, fiberglass or plastic bodies you will need a different mount.
- How long is the cable?
- The cable is 10 feet, which reaches most car and truck radio installations. Plan the route before mounting, since the length is fixed.
- Is it good for long-distance CB use?
- It is best for short-range talk such as convoys and local traffic. For maximum range, a properly tuned whip antenna on a fixed mount does better.
