Cb Aerial

<< < (3/3)

Bunnie:
on ours when we had the mag mount we put it on the roof over the roll bar, although need to be careful when going through carparks as we managed to break it.

we then mounted it on the drivers side rear bumper worked well but didnt always get a great signal. so its now drilled to the passanger rear quarter pannel just by the roof.

zacspeed:
I welded mine onto the back door!


The bolts that secure the mounting need trimming a little bit, but otherwise,  It seems to work just fine.

Evilgoat:
Ours was on a mag-mount as bunnie said that moved all over the thing till I mullered it.

Next stop was rear bumper with a post mount. Worked reasonably well and looked neat BUT the underside of the bumper fills with crud and the swr goes through the roof. Go this route then you'll need to cover the bottom of the post some how. Also its not really an optimal position, we ended up with a huge (4ft) whip just to get close to decent range.

Its now on the rear quarter on a body mount and it seems to have made a huge difference. Also a new radio too so it might be down to that too. Added pluss with the panel mount is that the cable is tucked away, runs down the inside of the rear, through the inside of the sill and out just under the dash to the radio.

The Front is also another possibility. Added complication is that very few surfaces on the Vit JLX are actually vertical or horizontal :)
