So my loving wife bought me a Surco Safari rack and a new Radio Shack TRC-447 CB for my birthday. Up till now I was using a Midland handheld with a through glass antenna, and it worked but had awful range. The new CB is much better, but clearly I need a real antenna as the range is still very poor. My thought is to use a Surco light bracket and install a roof mount antenna (like a Firestick DS-14) to that. I just wanted some opinions if that would work well or is there a better route to go. If I do go this setup, would i need a ground plane or no ground plane antenna? Also, any suggestions on running the cable to the roof? I guess I'll also need to figure out getting wiring for lights to the roof at some point.
