Joe I found some images of a 259B reading a mobile and it does show some very good readings in the CB band, but I did not read the context of the discussion, but here is the link.

Best Moblie Antenna for OTR Truck

I will make this comment however. These analyzer readings were likely taken with a feed line involved and therefore might have some effect. Also note that almost all his reading show little to no reactance across the entire bandwidth he scanned...I do not understand how that happens on the 259b, but I have seen it before and thus far no one has been able to explain why he sees resonance just about everywhere in the CB band.

My model record the match at the feed point, just to let you know.
