I've been running a few barefoot CB's (my father's old JC Penney 23-channel CB, my Uniden PC68XL, and my current Cobra 18 WX ST II) with just a Wilson 1000 for the past five years or so, but I've never really had good enough signal to have conversations with people. Now I've seen microphones advertised like Astatic mics that are supposed to be beneficial to the radio setup. What I'm wondering is do fancy microphones really make much difference? I know I've always heard the best way to get good signal is a twelve-foot whip from Radio Shack and an illegal amplifier, but the whip would look ridiculous on my Crown Victoria and I'm not really into illegal stuff. Ideas? Thanks.
