Nice looking antenna.
What's a "cotton picka"?
The Urban Dictionary says something that I don't think you mean.
I guess I'll have to ask my black family members if they find it offensive.
I doubt you mean to be out of line, it just puzzles me.

No way that is to funny i watched the video but didnt have speakers on, but somehow I knew he said "cotton picka"...
I could hear it now
"well well well cotton picka's lordy lordy looks like 40 got's a new antenna
Every word has origins. Many no longer mean what they once did. cotton picka doesn't mean anything more than gizmo, thinga majig, or doodad. It can also mean, fellow, dude, or bro'.
I believe my photo is posted in my profile. I've never picked cotton, but my parents did, and so has my son worked in cotton fields. See it doesn't mean anything with respect to what may have been its origins.
How about this John Deere 7760 cotton picka? as a Southerner might refer to a Cotton Picker.

It has more than one meaning as it was used to refer to both slaves, and to describe poor whites who generally had the worst job back in the time, working in the cotton fields.
Todays usage is not the same.
On a side note......
California has an incredible amount of agriculture in the central valley, and cotton was, and still is a big thing.
It was very common to see whole family's regardless of race "chopping cotton" in the 50`s n 60`s
You had to first thin the cotton out, removing any weeds.
Then several weeks later, you would have to go in and weed again.
Everything is mechanized now, but it was all hand labor then, with a hoe.
The worst part is....i can remember it.

How about the name Cotton Chopa? I'm Caucasian born and raised in Tunica Co Ms. and have chopped cotton and picked many a bale of cotton only with an International cotton picking machine and if were to call one of the black guys I worked with a Cottan Picka I would have had a fight on my hands but if that phrase was black on black then it's totally ok, hahah talk about double standards.
Some of y'all must not spend any much time on the CB if you don't know these terms. I hear them every cotton pickin' day 
Maybe some of you are alligator stations. All mouth and no ears. Perhaps you could make use out of a new toy Sirio Gain Master antenner so you could hear things on your raydiddios.
