In my apartment I can't pick up much SW at all due to noise and static(and can't put an antenna outside). When I sit in the car and hang the built in telescoping whip out the window its much better. So I've come to the conclusion-get out of the apartment and get in the car to listen. I have a NMO trunk mount and NMO-3/8-24 adapter from my amateur radio days. I just ordered a 3' fiberglass CB antenna on Ebay for 9 bucks. Also I ordered a BNC-1/8 mono adapter so I can connect it to the SW receiver. You think the fiberglass CB whip on the trunk mount would make a decent SW antenna? I know it's not ideal, but I was thinking it may work much better than the built in telescopic whip. What do you think?
