CB Aerial Fitting

Hi All

Santa is getting me a new CB for my Disco this year  :D

I am going to mount it in the map pocket above the drivers side windscreen, but do not know the best place for the aerial and the best size.

My defender had it mounted on the roof but I found that it was forever fouling on low trees etc when laning.  :(

If I was to fit it at the rear on the bumper would I still get good reception? :?

I have seen a combined CB and Radio aerial, Are they any good or just a gimmick.  8)

Cheers  Taz

Hi Taz...i got a gutter mount on my Disco , mounted it near enough between the two doors , level with the pillar. Got the whole lot from Thunderpole out of one of the landy mags.

Have also used a couple of tie-wraps to hold the antenna onto the roof bar. Just stops it getting pinged off if you hit a tree. Been off-roading loads and it works a treat.

Will get a couple of photos on here later for ya! OK bud?.....Andy
