Lets See those CB Radios!

[Prafeston]

I'm interested in installing a CB Radio in my SX/4 and was curious what if any other people are running in their Eagles? I know some have the stock setup...and I'm envious, but I'd love to see any and all CB setups. Radios, Antennas, etc. Pics! Lots of Pics!

I'm currently using a Wilson little wil for a cb antenna, I'll try to get a pick of my cb sometime.

Right on. I'm not sure if this was the best location for this thread, but I figured the CBs will be located in the interior. But I guess the antennas are mounted outside. Oh well. Look forward to seeing what some other Eagle guys have done. I have a plan for the SX/4 and I hope it works.

How about a 102 in whip?

I'd like to. I've read the taller the better. I'm just afraid it would look ridiculous!

Make your car into a police cruiser clone and then any antenna will fit in.

Ive been looking at the small cobra ones at the truck stop down the road

Im pretty sure it could get it to fit right where the ash tray is according to my measurements

Not sure about the antenna, I would like a tallish bumper mount one I think, but would like to see some pics as well. Also Im not too sure about drilling homes in my bumper.....at least it wont make it rust!

Here's a pic of one of the Midland models mounted in the ashtray. I know there are at least two guys on the forum running this setup.

I know Strikeeagle runs some sort of setup. I see at least two antennas on the back of his rig.



And I found these online. This was a local car that was for sale not long ago. Looks like he keeps his huge whip bend down when he's running around town. I'd be worried...whether down or up...that it would flap around and bang into the side of the car and scratch it up..

I'd like to know more about this setup.

Interesting gauge set up.   Please tell us more, some look the same.

My wagon used to have a CB in it, but all that was left when I drug it outta the field was the antenna. It was mounted to the trim on the rear glass.

This wasn't a real gauge installation.  One of the members was contemplating moving the floor gauges to the open cubbie above the radio, then found out they aren't individual gauges and it wouldn't be an easy move. So what you see is a photo-shop mockup.   I'm not sure if he ever installed aftermarket gauges up top or not.

I've got a K40 mounted in a slide mount which is fastened under the package tray on the passenger side. It has never given me any problems.

Older thread here, I know, but where is everyone mounting their CB antennas? Or is everyone using Magnetic mount ones? Pictures would be great if you've got something hard mounted.

This thread isn't that old. And I started it for the exact same reason you posted. I wanna see pics of cb and antenna setups.
