Am getting back into CB again in England and this video of yours helped, thank you, as I was 14 back in the 80s when I first started with a UK home rig, so not driving a car. Laws have changed here, so no licence now and AM, SSD is more a choice than FM I'm told. A lot quieter on the channels than in the 80s through when the craze took off more with FM

Man, thank you... this was one of the most informative, simple, and helpful videos I’ve found! THANK YOU!

Thank you for a great video. I made a lot of mistakes in the past with previous radios. Now I can hook this one up properly. The radio I bought several years ago, but it's still in the box, is a Midland 1001z. I also bought a Workman, SWR/RF/Field strength test meter. I have a couple Fire Stick antennas, but I like the antenna you show in your video. Thanks again.

So many haters on this comment section. Great video bud thanks for the info!

Great job with explaining!

Sweet vid, gonna put a cb in my 92 sierra pretty soon

Alright, another great video. Like you said antenna first, I joined your channel, and left a like. Have a great day. 21 S.C. Old Radio Night

Love the video, helped a lot! Trying to put a CB in my Jeep but I’m not the brightest when it comes to this stuff… I just wanna say, at 1.5x speed it sounds like Ben Shapiro using facts and logic to tell me how to install a CB radio

Very helpful! Thanks!

Nice install ; a good mag antenna atop the cab is the best location for best performance. Can't get better unless a 102 whip is on the roof, but that's not convenient to use.

CB and HAM radio are going to be crucial very soon

Nice vid! Who does your work? Most people really need to see how to set swr as far as working the switches. The fwd /rev I have same swr gauges in the trucks and car. Very accurate for the money! Thanks for taking the time and effort on the walk through have a blessed day.

Don’t run the coax through the door, it will pinch the coax. They make these stick on open clips run it over to the driver side, then down next to the window clip every foot. From the base of the antenna . The down btw the cab and bed hiding best you can then under the cab back seat at the floor is a place to bring it in to the cab and then you no what to do!!! Good job !!!

My dad has a nice Galaxy that he use to have in his first semi. Has a display to show you the frequency the radio is on. Think he said it was kinda sorta illegal because it had some internal work done to it to boost the power and change how the channel 9 switch functions.

Hey i want to hook one up for the first time in my dodge ram any recommendations on set up? i was thinking i should start with a used radio and antenna? for the first time and see how it works out

I always powered mine up with the cigarette lighter, through a ferrite choke or two on the power cord and no issues at all. Certain LED headlights causes interference, in that situation. I just throw ferrite choke on those too and problem solved.

Doesn't that leak having the wire in the door like that, or do u only pit it up when you need it?

what happened to the Hustler antenna ? it was popular in the 60s and 70s !

Dose the antenna wire get pinched by the door?

I have a cobra 25ltd classic. The power cable that came in the box have one of those basic white plastic 2A inline fuses. Is this enough when hardwiring it to the battery. I noticed your's was a 30A but I'm guessing that's cause of your 10ga cable and your amp.

Good install but antenna doesn't always have to be center of the roof. Most usually mount the antenna at the rear of the cab as its the center of the vehicle. But if this works for you then that's all that matters.....73's.

Antenna in middle means you will hear and transmit all around you like a circle. The further back you place your antenna, the more directional it becomes in front of you. Likewise if you move the antenna up close to the front , you will hear/transmit better behind you. Because i use my radio for travel, its best to set it back so i can hear/transmit in front of me down the road ahead.

You shouldn't spread the message that a very low SWR is the be all and end all, there other more important things to focus on. For example, an SWR if 1.5:1 with 4 watts of input power equates to just 0.154 watts of reflected power. An SWR of 1.75:1 is a 0.227w loss, and 2:1 is only 0.4w of loss. Now when you consider what effect this has on signal strength, the person at the other end may not be able to tell the difference by their meter. After all, it takes a quadrupling of power increase just to achieve one S point. What is more important is the other negative effects associated with a 'high' SWR. The fact that the coax is radiating affecting the antenna radiation pattern, RF feedback issues, rf burn and so forth.

You just repeated what I already said. Earlier you tried to correct me on how much more power is required for an increase of one S point. You said it is twice the power for one S point, I already said that this would give half an S point. So like I said, you need to quadruple your power to achieve an extra S point. If you're running four watts then this would become sixteen watts. 4x4. You need to brush up on your maths. Should I just talk to the wall instead?

So my guess is that you are a certified ham operator right. I'm not to sure why the video is about CB when you're using a 10 meter radio. Don't think this about running extra power on the 11 meter band no a lot of folks do that despite it being illegal and it doesn't seem the FCC cares that much as long you don't go overboard. My point is people using 10 meter radios to talk to hams and mod it to work on 11 meters who aren't licensed hams. The way I understand is you are way more likely to get in serious trouble doing that because hams will track you down and report you. From what I hear it's a more punishable offence talking on bands you're not licensed to talk on than just simply running a linear on the cb. Maybe I'm wrong on this but thought I would at least warn you if you're not licensed, just be careful. Like I said people run linears all the time on the cb but it seems you can get into some serious crap running export radios. There's actually someone in my area running a linear and bleeding over 4 channels, I'm surprised he hasn't got stripped and fined. You bleed over, you're asking for trouble

Unless your really being an a$$ and or interrupting air ports, hospitals, police, fire, you see what im saying. then they take your equipment if its not legal . I remember a friend blasting away on a 10 tube phantom Bleeding a hospital, and making there lights flicker. They (the FCC) came in, took his tubes, ranted a bit and left. Back then 6Lq6 tubes were around 40 bucks each.

first off this guy is clueless second your a dip ship for thinking a little dipshit could cause enough trouble to even get the fcc to come after him. he better be causing major major interference with some serious power for them to ever give a dam

Frying the radio due to improper or high SWR s is a myth.

Never had the antenna tuner thing and always go through the fuse panel. NEVER had a problem with performance. Sorry, this is bullshit.

That's because you've never had a properly setup radio system so you don't know what you're missing. Ignorance is bliss.
