What kind and where should i mount a CB Antenna on a 1997 Oldsmobile eighty-eight?

Question

i'm thinking about getting a cb radio, maybe a Cobra 29LTD. what kind of antenna would go good with that, does it matter what kind of antenna i get with a certain radio. like to certain antennas go good with certain radios? and where should i mount it. i don't think my rear seats go down, so i dunno if i can fit the antenna wire through my back seats. so i duno if the truck is good or the top of my car?

Answer 1

At Radio Shack they have bumper mount kits too.  I wouldn't want to drill a hole in my car.

Answer 2

my favorite is a magnet mount for the roof. Dont forget to buy a SWR Meter to keep the antenna adjusted correctly.

Answer 3

Doesn't matter what brand you buy. Placement: look for hidden mount antenna. Most of them will mount inside your trunk or to the frame. Typically good reception and no worries about people breaking it off, or when going into a parking deck. JC Whitney used to sell them, haven't looked there in a while though.

Answer 4

truck mount

andresearch go to store where you intend purchasing and salesperson will assist

also budget constraints.
