I'm new to the CB radio game...a little late I know.

Where in the Baton Rouge area can I purchase a decent antenna? The one I picked up from pilot is terrible.

TIA

You need height....you running duals?

I have a tuned up CB with 2 4ft and I get out pretty good when I am on the road traveling. My antenna are standard ones from a truck stop.

102" Whip antenna if you want to get serious.

There's a kickass CB shop in oppolosses off of 190. Forget the name.

Wilson 1000 or 5000 roof mount is where it's at. Even with a cheap arse cobra and a toolbox in the bed my SWRs stay around 0.8-1.1
