Won't that decrease the signal range? (clearly I'm new at this but I'd like to hear more about this method of mounting)
yes it will. i store mine horzontally when i'nm not using it and flip it up when i go out wheelin. but it will still work short range horzontally.

What kind of range do you get with your antenna down? I only use my cb when wheeling with other people so short range should be good enough if not its easy to change.

Installed a 1" tcase drop because I had a little vibration on acceleration and it is the last thing I can think of to fix, and now the minimum vibrations I had are gone. For the first time ever I dont have anything to fix on my jeep. Well anything realistic, other than more mods...
