Sure. My point was that if you pick the right antenna for your needs and expectations, then all is well.

Yeah....My expectations were really low as I had a glass mount antenna on my ford. it was horrible. I could get like 200 ft from another vehicle and loose them. with this 5kms is amazing! ha ha.

Glad to hear it's working out. Where did you mount the antenna? and what type/brand of antenna mount did you use?

Went to parts for trucks, bought a big rig mirror mount, drilled two holes in my 3rd light mount. Bolted it up and bobs your uncle, great swr, and quiet cb.
