Wanted - CB Antenna and Mount

Post by GrandpaDenny »

Hi guys, I'm installing a CB on Gertrude and am looking for an antenna and mount. Anybody got one available? Thanks!

The CB is a Cobra 75 WX ST.

Question probably for Pete: would it be permissible to hook the external speaker leads into the stock stereo system? I am thinking to hook them into the audio input leads to the radio amp (the output leads from the factory radio, IOW).

I have a spare VII radio antenna and mount. But I don't think that helps.

I may be interested in your antenna (if GrandpaDenny doesn't want it) - is it the folding type? And, like on the ZN1300 Voyager, does the antenna cover dual duty, i.e. Radio and CB, or did the Voyager II use a separate antenna for CB?

Holy reviving an old thread, Batman! That was a year and a half ago, my CB has been installed for a loooooong time. The VXII uses separate antennas for CB and radio, to answer that question.

Ahh Ok. I guess it won't work for me then (as I need an antenna that does both radio and CB - I have the original and it works fine but i'd prefer a 'folding' one if that was an option).

The antenna mast I used is one for a Goldwing 1100/1200. It folds, and looks enough like the original I guess. https://cyclemax.com/inc/sdetail/gl1100 ... 9809/48819

Nope, Thats not accurate.
The factory CB was set up to either use a single antenna or you could get the optional left side antenna.
