I need a CB antenna. I was wondering what I should get and if I have to get it tuned or not. This will be going on a 99 Dodge.

 

My set-up, its a basic Tram metal whip. I had a firestik b4 this one but I got rid of it since I had to park in a parking ramp on the job site. It basicly got ruined since it was not very flexible and hit and dragged on the roof of the ramp. I thought it was going to rip off or dent my fender from the pressure. But thats why I went with a metal whip less surface area and it'll bend very easily if need be. But goin down the road with the wind its fine. I get all of mine tuned since the place I buy the whips does it for free. But I would anyways since it will give you better range. Heres the mount for the 94-02 Dodge that I modified for my 03 and it works great.

 

I've always had luck with my Wilson silver-load. They're really easy to tune and have great reception.

I have a Wilson Trucker 5000 and have never had an issue with it. Been using it for 5 years so far no problems.

My My old Wilson Trucker was awesome. It picked up alot on SSB.

 

IM runnin daul 5'6'' coil metal whips on my truck they realy talk. I have about 8 different cb antennas for sale if interested just PM. I would defintaly get it tuned once the antenna is in the fainal mounting location. What kind of CB Radio will you be runnin?
