i just mounted my cb and my pa up today. everything is running great but i haven't hooked up an antenna yet. i want to run the wire without it showing and i don't know how to get it from the inside of the truck to the outside. i don't have a toolbox yet. but i want to put a whip in the middle of the truck bed.

any suggestions?

 

i have a 98 ext cab and mounted my unit in the center of my dash below the cupholders and ran the wire behind the panel on the floor under the floor mat then down the side of the trim to the back of the cab and then up and out of a vent in the back of the cab to the antenna mounted off my tool box

 

well i dont have a tool box and i but i still want a whip in the center where the tool box would be. how should i mount it and still get a good ground

 

do i need to ground the antenna if the cable is hooked to the back of the cb?

 

i didnt and you shouldnt have to but im not 100% certain on that though. you should be able to just mount the bracket right to the bed then have the whip in the center.

 

ok thanks thats all i needed.
i have so much fun with thos pa's yelling at people and stuff. good those get you in trouble?

 

i guess anything could get you in trouble but you'd have to try pretty hard i dont think they're illegal
