Hello everyone, I am looking for a permanent antenna setup on my truck. I am debating between a Wilson 5000 or a Firestik MK-DM18R with a 4' fiberglass antenna. Either will be center of the roof on my truck. I can get the Firestik for about $50 for both, and the Wilson for about $90 from a local shop. I am leaning towards the Firestik because I did loose 75% of my income, but if the the Wilson is better then I would not mind springing the extra few bucks. The CB I am using is a Cobra 148 GTL with no amp, but I do use side bands.
I was also wondering if I could get a piece of 2" PVC pipe to coil the coax around. I have a 1988 standard cab/ long bed Ranger so I wanted to mount it behind the seat and use the PCV to keep the wires from touching each others.
