4.0 out of 5 stars Decent magnetic mount CB antenna, January 11, 2007

This came properly packaged in a large cardboard box (no problems with damage in transit). I inserted the antenna whip into the base and tightened a set screw with the enclosed allen wrench. The magnetic mount held the antenna securely in the middle of the roof of our van. The cable was sufficiently long to run from the antenna, through the rear hatch door seal, down to the floor of the van, along the floor to the front seat where it attached to a cb radio. Since I did not have an SWR meter, I was not able to adjust the antenna. Even so, I was getting a good mile radius around me where I had solid radio contact (this is from a Cobra hand-held CB). Antenna stayed firm on the roof even though I was driving 70mph for much of the time. We got into some freezing rain which formed a layer of ice around the antenna (and that hurt transmission), but did not cause any damage to the antenna.

If you have a small car, such as my Mazda, it is easy to install and route to the CB. I have mounted mine on the trunk, and it can be removed if necessary. The magnet is of good strength and works well. It has also taken a few knocks from my oak tree that branches out over my drive way.
So far, I am pleased with its performance.

The Cobra antenna that I received was of a very good quality and performed very well with my Cobra 40 channel SSB Radio. The only problem was that I had ordered the HG A1500 High Gear CB Antenna and received the HG A1000 Antenna instead. It is the same antenna except it is about 15 inches shorter. I decided to keep it instead of going to all the trouble sending it back for an exchange.
