Prostick 4` Foot Fiberglass 1000 Watt - Black CB Radio Antenna

Antenna looks really good and works as described. Love it paired with the black spring.

Bought this to mount to my trail rig for cb. I've had it for several years now and here's what I think.It does require a little tuning out of the box, but that is no big deal. Hook up your meter, take a few readings, peel back the cap and cut down to the wire. Remove a little at a time while checking SWR until you hit a sweet spot. I can't remember exactly but I took off 1/4" at a time until I got maybe 1.5 inches trimmed (wire length, not length on the stick! Maybe 1 or 2 wraps). Done. Swr showed around 1.3 at best dip on swr meter before I wasn't sure about taking more off. Good enough! Probably wouldn't have had to trim so much if I didn't use a spring. I got a VNA after having this thing for a while and have been able to more finely tune it to about 1.2-1.3 on 1 & 40 with the dip at 20 being around 1.1. Thinking about buying another for my 10m mobile since it advertises being tuned for 26 to 29.5 Mhz.As a trail antenna I love this thing. Mounted on a quality spring I have bent this thing all over the place with absolutely no issues. Like severe bending at angles greater than 45 degrees, slapping into trees and hanging up on stuff, I have never even damaged it. My tail rig is an old body style f250 and it doesn't fit nicely down a lot of jeep or sxs trails without hitting stuff. If this thing was flimsy it wouldn't have lasted a single day. This is a tall antenna, that's what you want for reception and tx. I suppose a fire stick with a tuner tip is easier to tune, but it still requires a meter.

I got this antenna thinking I ordered a Firestick. I hooked it up to my antenna analyzer to see where it was in the band. To my surprise, it was very well tuned for the CB band! I did not need to make any adjustments. I did take the red cap off to make sure it was tunable and the thin copper wire did appear to be accessible in case it needed trimmed. Very pleased with this antenna.

Excellent antenna. I co-phased 2 of them and SWR was 1.4 out of the box.

Very good product!

I ordered this antenna for my new CB radio, for my auto.After installing, I could not get the SWR's below 4.5I tried everything including adding ground straps to everywhere on my vehicle but to no avail.I finally decided to buy a different brand antenna.After installing the new antenna, the SWR's set perfectly within 10 minutes!Do not buy this antenna for your CB radio !

Easy to tune and good quality

My antenna broke after a couple of hours use.
