Here's how I mounted my antenna. It nice since you can loosen one bolt and pivot it back to get through low garages and stuff.

 

i love mine. heres my custom mount i made out of 16g steel.

 

bro u hafto get a cb if im getting one. im not just gonna talk to myself the whole time lol

 

lol my coworker always gives me a hard time. "Who are you going to talk to? No one uses cb radios anymore"

 

i gotta uniden pc68xl cb a wilson lil wii base and K40 antenna i got a local truck stop works good for what i need it for makes road trips with convoy of rigs or trail rideing very nice & fun ... even spliced it into the power from the power port in my xj i dont have to have my key on or nothing to use it just gotta turn it on & for a bigger cb like mine this seemed to be the only place i could mount it and it look good

 

My cb is in. the same spot and I have almost the exact same stereo lol but I don't drink pepsi...cuz I work for coke haha

 

haha alright i think the decision is made im going to put one on

 

haha i drink whatevers at the house dont matter to me & yea sony xplod is some of the best car audio ive ever had i always have good luck them that and i only paid 20bucks for this one includeing my cd amp sub cb and all i think i have 80bucks in all of it so i cant complain .... now if i could luck up and find me a lift for my xj id be doin good lol

 

I run CB's in everything ... so yeah I have one however my setup is definatly a little more hardcore than others lol

 

Question: Anyone using a hand held CB. I stopped by Radio Shack today just to see what that had. They have a 200 Channel and a 40 Channel hand held. Are they any good or should I look for a mounted CB.

Hand helds aren't great plus you can get a basic setup for trails for the same price as a hand held. Everything you need is it radio shack for basic setup

 

get a mobile .. when I go offroading i will usually carry both ... the handheld is great for when one person gets stuck and communicating with the rest of the group. Also look at Craigslist ... you can some nice deals on Cobra 29's and better for $50 and up

 

VHF/UHF radios are becoming more common due to the fact that you get weather alerts/ warnings and the Game Wardens, Park Rangers and Emergency crews use them.

 

How much are those radios??

 

Anywhere between 70 to 120 dollars depends where you go.
