Just scored and received a Radio Shack TRC503 $10 . Tested, and it works. Want to install this week. Where is a good place to get a cheap antenna? Not sure what I'm looking for either. The smaller the better IMO.

go with one that has a magnetic base. mine falls off when it hits a tree instead of breaking lol

 

Mount one with the big spring to your rear bumper.

 

I saw those at Walmart last night. $12, but I they looked crappy lol. I'm thinking of a 3' firestick, mounted w/2 L brackets above the tail light.
Where do they sell those antennas?

Yeah. Maybe. I might just drill into the side and mount the antenna there too...

 

a magnetic mount, in the center of roof will give you the best performance

 

I still think off the bumper.Come on an eight foot whip how cool would that look?

 

Most truck stops have a good supply and variety of cb products.

 

You may want to rethink that, I ripped mine off on a rock, not a good time!! Now I have a small mag-mount unit on my roof, it is only 8" long, but it works great for trail runs. HTH!!

 

I still say bumper.

 

Where did you buy it amigo? And cuanto?

I saw them at Walmart for $12. W/the cable attached. But I guess they all come like that....

 

Mine was mounted on the PS rear quarter panel, about where the gas fill dorr is located on the other side. I cleaned it off on Saran Wrap, and it did a bit of damage as it ripped out. Big rocks don't move!! LOL!!

 

Thanks but I mean, where did you buy the mag mount? Lol.. sorry. Maybe I threw too much Spanish at ya..

 

OH, sorry, try this linky:

This is what I have. Like I said, for on road use, the range is not that great, but for trail riding it is great. I get about a mile throw out of it, which for wheeling, suits me fine.
