In a car, you are in essence inside a what? Common misconception. Do you think lightning will go 30,000 feet and when it gets to the car suddenly say; "Oh no, I can't jump the 5 inches across the rubber tires, I'll just stop here."? It's because the electricity flows through the metal, not you. A car is a metal coffin. |

kc0iv 'round these parts the skoolin stops at 4th grade, i woodnt git that far ifin my dad wasnt in da same clas. so afta that I hafta learn evrythin on ma own. its prettie hard to get an edgimication when yer out in the sticks. alls i no is truckin. Since you are in a trucking forum it would appear you must be mentally challenged. And as such you would be the perfect candidate for one of those 70-80 thousand watt mobile rigs jegzus claims. Have a nice day. :withstupid: |

Here is another example: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1397994/posts quote from: http://georgia911.georgia.gov/00/cha...350751,00.html "Rubber-soled shoes and rubber tires provide no protection from lightning. However, the steel frame of a hard-topped vehicle provides increased protection if you are not touching metal. Although you may be injured if lightning strikes your car, you are much safer inside a vehicle than outside." To answer your question. You are in a Faraday shield. Which increases your chance of your body not being charged. kc0iv |
How do you now if your cb is working up to its full strength I have a cobra 29 with a radio shack magnetic base on top of my truck roof i was thinking it was going to be noisier than it is with other people talking i can hear some but not very often Is the cb used very often maybe this is normal? another note on the meter when its on the needle is about 1/4 up the scale does this mean anything or is it normal ,swr acording to the directions on how to adjust is close to 1.

While the magnetic base antenna is not the best of antennas it should give a better results than what you describe. kc0iv |
