  • Our take on the TRAM 240-B CB 5 INCH

    The TRAM 240-B is a 5-inch black chrome magnet-mount CB antenna with a 3/8-inch x 24 thread base, 17 feet of RG58 coax and a PL-259 connector. It is a short, low-profile whip meant for quick temporary mounting on a vehicle roof or trunk lid, not for long-range work. Compared with full-length whip antennas, it trades range and efficiency for size and easy setup. It suits drivers who want a compact CB antenna for short-range chatter, monitoring and local convoy use.

    Pros
    • Magnetic NMO base mounts and removes quickly on metal surfaces
    • Short 5-inch whip stays low and out of the way
    • 17-foot RG58 cable gives reach from roof to cab
    • Standard PL-259 connector fits most CB radios
    • Includes a UHF male PL-259 adapter
    Cons
    • Short whip gives limited range compared with longer antennas
    • Magnet mount needs a clean, flat steel surface to hold
    • RG58 cable loses more signal over its length than thicker coax
    • No tuning or SWR adjustment built into the design

    Questions and answers

    Is this antenna good for long-distance CB use?
    No. The 5-inch whip is built for short-range work. For distance, a longer whip or a permanently mounted antenna performs better.
    What surfaces does the magnet mount stick to?
    It needs a flat, clean steel surface such as a roof or trunk lid. Aluminum and plastic panels will not hold it.
    Does it fit a standard CB radio?
    Yes. The included PL-259 connector and UHF adapter fit the antenna jack on most CB radios.
    Can I leave it on the vehicle in a car wash?
    It is best removed first. The short whip and magnet base can be knocked loose by brushes or high water pressure.
    What is in the box?
    The 5-inch black chrome NMO magnet mount, 17 feet of RG58 coax with a PL-259 connector, and a UHF male PL-259 adapter.
    Do I need to tune it?
    There is no tuning adjustment on this antenna. Check SWR with a meter after mounting to confirm the setup is working.
