(1/3) > >>

flash42:
looking at fitting a CB to my defender in the next few weeks.
just wondering how difficult said task is.
basically is it easy for a noob like me to do?

v8rangie:
just need to get power to it which is easy enough and mount the aireal somewhere and run the wire through the the CB.

it is relatively easy to do.

THUNDERPOLE :D

Get them to stick you a cig lighter plug on it, almost foolproof.

hi

Yes they are. forget the fag lighter socket a CB needs a good connection to work well so hard wire it, The antenna need Free Space to get best reception mount it a high as you can best in centre of vehicle front or back, if you go for the rear you will need about 6meters of coax for a LR90. MOST IMPORTANT DO NOT TRANSMIT ON A CB WITHOUT THE ANTENNA CONNECTED YOU WILL BLOW YOUR RIG!!  :oops: If this is not enough log on to firestick.com go to the tech help.

easy as eating an apple pie, i think  :lol:

no but seriously just wire power to it and an aerial to ot and you can transmit and receive, you might want to think about where you put your arial, the only issue i had was that the radio was picking up interferance from the engine because of the particular power source i used, if you want a photo of its location give me a pm, if you fit it and find that you are picking up interferance and people are having trouble listening to yyour convo give me a pm and ill send you the parts you need to sort it, unless those space ships catch up with me first  :lol:

cheers kieran, best of luck
