Feeler: No Drill CB Antenna Solution for H3/T Owners

[Perk]

The 5' will be better and the mount will support the length don't worry. The citizens band radiates in a circle so it's best to have a foot or so above the truck for best tx/rx. Also don't forget to check and tune your swr after installing a new antenna.

I have the 5' & 3'. The 5' makes all the difference. I would suggest you get the spring mount Firestik makes. I have it and it avoids breakage when off-roading. No problems on freeways either.

Definitely get a spring, makes all the difference, especially when its constantly being barraged by branches lol

I'm not sure I'm really gonna need a spring out here in CA. Don't wheel w/ to many branches but 5' sounds like its the way to go

I got mine on saturday, looks good and sturdy, now just waiting for my 5' antenna to come in.

 

[Hans3T]

That's great to hear and it looks awesome on there. Thanks again

I strongly suggest you get the Firestik HD spring at the base. It avoids damaging the fiberglass Firestik. If it was a metal whip it wouldn't matter.

You really need a spring it doesn't have to be a fire stick spring any cb antenna spring will work.

 

[ReconH3]

True but the Firestik HD one is gauged for the 5' antenna. Others may be too weak and the antenna could be all over the place on the freeway. The Firestik has much greater wind resistance. There are probably better ones out there, but unless you know somebody that has tried a specific one, I would stick with that.
