DanW Posted June 10 Report Share Posted June 10 I'm wanting to use the trunk lid lip mount for a CB/antenna. Will the Midland mount/cable work with CB? It appears to be the same coax cable that CB antennas use. Also, any recommendations for a good CB antenna with an NMO mount that is 3 to 4 feet long? Any help is appreciated! I'm going to run a President Bill I picked up a year or so ago in my Jeep Gladiator. It has poor options for ground plane, so the lip mount for the hood is probably the best that can be had. So that's why I'm going that direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
