Description
This antenna is 36cm long and being a 5/8 wave, shows an approximate gain of 3dB over the standard 1/4 wave that is supplied standard with most CB Handhelds.
This equates to a virtually doubling the effective output power and receive signal.
Additionally, the so called ‘picket-fencing’ or type of signal flutter that results when a vehicle is in motion is greatly reduced when a 5/8 wavelength antenna is employed.
The difference is noticeable when using this antenna.
