This has been an age old question that has been around since the invention of CB's-when you find out the answer let us know :P

 

if you have questions about radios check out this site, a lot of great info and some dang nice poeple. http://www.cbradiotalk.com

 

Scuze the Hijack but you coming up here Snowmobiling Snowman?
My Indy Classic rattle trap will take you on a Tour :P

 

I had my system profesionally installed on the local truck I used to drive. I installed it myself on my current truck and it seems okay. Somehow or another I managed to screw up the coax so I went and bought another one, this one with dual hookups. I only have the one antenna. Steel wire whip with the little coily thing. Not fancy, but not super cheap either. Seems okay, but I guess I'll find out once I leave the house tomorrow. I may go ahead and buy another antenna just for looks. Probably won't hook it up. I do like the dual look myself and money ain't much of a problem for me. 8)

 

Don't use dual coax with only one antenna :shock: At least stick any antenna on the other side of it. Otherwise it's going to be messed up.
Your tuning will be way out and could damage the radio. You will be able to use the radio, but either get single coax or put another antenna on.

 

if your coax is set up for dual antennas then you need to hook up both. running an open coax end can ruin your radio. is you only want a single antenna hooked up go and get your self a single piece of coax.

 

:shock: I didnt even know you had a sled! I may not get up there this year. I built a new home and still haven't been able to sell the old one. :evil: Then, Monday I got laid off at Conway :evil: :evil: . I'm hurtin for cash bad! And if (I mean when) I take another job, time off may be hard to get. But I will remember the offer, I'd love to go. Apologies to the original poster and the rest of the thread. :wink:

 

I say no less than 10 antennas. Any less than that, and you aren't a real truckdriver. :wink:

 

had a Bunch more antenna's than that, I'm guessin' 50, on Warlock in Iraq-That's a Electronic Jamming Truck.

Hell-Come up to God's country-Lots of good and Small truckin' outfits
Why don't you check out Van Eerdon(sp) out of Grand Rapids? Awesome equipment to drive and benefits and fringes are hard to match anywhere.
