The CB is between 3 and 30mhz whereas broadcast radio is well above that.

VHF= broadcast radio
HF= cb

Nice cb mount by the way. Very professional.

Actually its between 26.965mhz and 27.405mhz

that is a slick piece you built for yourself. Nice custom touch that looks more professional than some others I have seen pictured.

Would you consider making it available to others for a price suitable to both parties?

I am interested, bet there may be others. Like you I am not keen on drilling into my ARB.

Some folks report they get just fine radio reception with the rear glass embedded antenna hooked to their radio.

Good to see another 99 manny tranny out there.

so how is your reception on this? what did you get your s's down to? looking at your antenna it looks like your ears are below the top of the cab so you might have a hard time hearing some one behind you but it might be a worth while minor sacrifice for such a clean install.
nice job!
