Message:
I need to get an antenna for my CB radio. I don't want some huge antenna that hits the McDonalds drive through every time i go through ( you guys know who you are). I heard about antennas that are am/fm/cb and replace the ome antenna. Is this true? i don't wan't one that goes on the window, magnet fasened, ect. I heard this antenna is the same size as the ome antenna. If any one has any info please let me know. thanx

Stepdog & Clevite,
You really need to stay away from those "adapters" that let you use your stock radio antenna for a CB antenna also. CB radios require antenna systems tuned to the 27 Mhz frequencies put out by a CB.
Radio antenna systems are just not setup for that. Sure you'll find adapters out there but they really aren't worth a cr@p to be honest.
As GreenGiant suggests, any of the Wilson antennas are your best bet. They are a top of the line antenna and designed for CB use, many of them will also handle a li'l extra "power" too.

Stepdogg, Check out this link, it shows the Firestick fender mount on my 2000 QC. It loads a little slow.
