i run the wilson 4' fiberglass on my big truck and the heep, excellent. can get the in 3' aswell. put a big spring on the base of it, and leave it alone.
as far as an external speaker, radioshack, or any audio store.
truckstops will have what you need aswell, and no shipping.

I bought my antenna from West Coast Mall, that's where I found the best deal.

you need to tune it correctly.
follow the instructions on the packet that the antenna comes in, or go over to the electrical section here and look for "swr" in the forum....

X2 on the Wilson 4 foot.

My external PA speaker is just zip tie mounted under the hood, but it gets all full of mud and then you cant hear it.

i more quick question for the all knowings out there, i want to get one of the K40 super flexes because i have heard alot of good things but i still have 2 questions. 1.) how much does the length effect how far your CB will pick up and transmit to and how clear it is. and 2.) if i mount it inside of my soft top and strap it to the roll bar bending around will it negatively effect my transmit/receive distance and clarity? THANKS!!!
