I seem to never get it right with my cb. Been thru 2 units and antennae, multiple locations and ground methoods, same lousy transmission and marginal reception. Would one of these NGP antenna help me any you think?
Maybe it is your expectations of the radios that is the issue. You talking about a 4 watts signal, AM modulation and a limited gain antennas. On top of that your in the lowest point in the 11 year solar cycle. Radio propagation as a whole is in the dumps right now. If your getting 4-5 miles mobile to mobile range then your getting what you should. Granted CB can talk further but noise levels, both man made and atmospheric contribute to what you can hear and thus how far your can communicate.
