Guys,
I can't seem to find a 77-115 schematic anywhere. Can anyone tell me what the voltage on the orange cable on the 77-115 is? Is it like any other orange cable on a molex (3.3v)? I just rigged my radio onto a cigarette lighter plug rather than dismantling my car to plug it into...
Ok, so I got my meter today finally! I think I figured out why people were saying they needed the 66" whip for the wilson 1000... I still have my cheap Metra antenna for now and I was TRYING to tune it and the lowest I could get it on 20-40 was around 2.3... I physically couldn't lengthen the...
I don't know if this is the correct place or not but I am looking for a nice used mag mount antenna for $20-$40. I would prefer it be in the middle somewhere but let me know what you have. I currently have a returnable $25 Metra CB from advanced auto parts so yours is probably better lol...
I see people saying they mount their antenna in the middle of their roof on their vehicle. My question is, does it make that big of a difference? I have mine magmounted to my trunk and I can hear people chatting and I can talk to people. Would I notice a huge difference in clarity or anything...

Would this one be any good?

Ok, weird noob question... I have a mobile setup I just setup. Against the advice of people on here I didn't spend >$50 on an antenna. I am ok with having and average antenna and plan on, if I'm happy, upgrading in a few months. Now I have a mobile setup running in my car... My question...
Ok, so I am new to this whole scene. Have some electronics experience and a ton of computer/software/hardware experience. I'm comfortable wiring and soldering and what not. I've been reading around the ARRL's website and been delving more and more into circuitry and radio/soundwaves. HOWEVER...
