A99 works for me.


I have used a Radio Shack A99 with radials,and and 5 turns of coax, on 10 meters at about 20 feet for about 10 years, with no complaints. I also have a simular RS CB antenna without radials and no choke that eats right through the 50 year old phone wires in this house.


There are several Truck depots around here. My nephews talk to truckers when they visit. The neighbors wanted to complain, but I was mowing the front yard. How could it be me?


I need to add the choke. Radials would tangle with the TV antenna.
