Best Mobile Antenna?

For a Big Coil antenna try a Predator 10K, a Mr. Coily, Monkey Made, or a 55.

For a Fiberglass stick try a Titan, Van Ordt, k40 Plus Fibergass or a Victory Quad Wound.

For an Enclosed Trucker type try a Wilson 5000, a K40 Plus or a K40 Trucker Antenna.

If you have a tall Condo the top loaded antennas might be a better choice.

This is from my experience at the shop.

Good Luck.

Mr. Coily?...Good luck getting one!:rolleyes:
 
A friend uses a a dual coil 10k on a longnose freightliner and is more than happy. They make some nice mounts also!
 
3 coil sections seems like a lot of potiental for loss . are they trying to wrap a 1/2 wave or 5/8 onto a 3-4 foot fiberglass stick ? i dont know...just asking....quack quack .
 
@hotrod what do you think about this antenna?



Chris
hoestly..never used one.looks interesting though.
if ya have bad grounds on your big truck that may work well.ive seen
times when couldnt get a wilson 5k any lower than a 2.0 on all channels
which is bad ground.so tried a fanceis worked fine 1.2-1.3.this was on
a truck with a tall sleeper and i believe fiberglass doors.if your truck isnt fiberglass
doors a wilson 2k/5k trucker tune great.also predator10k.
