its a damn good thing taht you didnt break on the trail by yourself.

Im thinking my CB antenna needs to be tuned b/c i didnt hear a thing!

I know, at least it started happening on the way home. Pulled my plugs and they're carbon covered, so I'm running rich, but when I adjust the mix screws to fully closed, the truck still runs, but roughly. I gave up on it for the night and will swap it for a different carb later in the week to see what happens since I want to go out again next weekend or even during the week.

if you decide to go out again let me know. I am itchin to wheel again!...ive got the bug!

FilthyRich

and it doesn't help that it is on the back bumper. It barely sticks over the roof

Localmotion

yea...true that! Im looking for ways to mount the antenna onto the TJM w/o drilling a hole in it. ive heard also not to cut the antenna cord b/c it will lose strength or something like that. Can i just roll it up ?..LOL

rwmorrisonjr

Don't roll it up. Instead, make a 12" long loose skein (figure 8 loop) out if the excess and tie it in the center. This way you won't make a magnetic choke in the wire and keep the RF interference to a minimum. I have to do the same thing before I tune the one in my truck.

I'll let you know about future wheeling, maybe next weekend if I can swing it.

thanks for the info Rich! now to find the cb mount!

If your up for wheeling again, mild wheeling that is Im still a noob, I can meet up with ya.

FilthyRich
