    CB Radio

    I ran a brief search with a few prompts but turned up nothing, so I'll ask here and see if anyone remembers anything. Has anyone installed a CB radio in their car? I was thinking about unplugging the hole from my antenna (I internalized the antenna) and putting in a smaller whip antenna so I could communicate with other people in my group on long drives and have some forewarning about police traps. I've had Cb radios before but I'm just wondering what this little community has done with them

      ^^Damn it Mike!

      Send a PM to HappyGilmore or check out his members ride thread. http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=135568

      He was talking about putting together a DIY for CB in a CB. Not sure if anything has become of it, I'm not around this site often enough anymore to keep up.

          well the kind of crazy thing I was thinking about doing was putting a white 4 foot whip antenna out the normal antenna spot but I'm not sure how that will look and if it will require additional support inside trunk

            you would be better off getting a mag mount rather then trying to do that..
            you need to keep in mind that the ant and radio need a swr match of at max 1.5..
            what kind of radio are you gonna run is it tuned or stock. a lil wil can be had for around 50 bucks or so
            i am a base operator so what ever questions you have ill see if i can answer them

              I'm planning on running the seperate antenna and cb antenna, my brother is a tech and can help me with all the wires, I'm just wondering what peoples opinions are about looks. I'm getting car redone in white but will a 4' antenna sticking straight up look trashy? and will having cb and radio antenna's on same side of car cause interference?

                      When I got my cb9 it had been used as a courier vehicle, and it had what I haven't figured out yet, it was either a CB radio setup or a car phone setup in it. Kinda weird, I looked up one day and saw a microphone by my visor. Eventually pulled everything out, an antenna, some kinda brain box, a long cord that looked like an ethernet cable, a microphone, power and ground wires, etc.

                      This just had a small antenna that was held on by some kinda double sided tape to the outside of the rear driver's side window. And another piece that was installed to the inside of the window right behind the antenna. Not sure how exactly it worked, somehow sent the signal through the glass I guess.

                          don't worry, I won't try and buy anything from anybody until I'm not a noob. Against the rules and all. Anyways I intend to buy a very specific antenna, like the ones on my brothers old truck

                              I wasn't intending to sell anyhow I was gonna tell you how I have mine mounted and what you need for it to work the best. Hence the reason why I need to do the DIY.
