I need some help/advice please. I want to use cb's to communicate with my grown children. One daughter lives about 2 miles away, the other about 7 miles away. I tried full power walkie talkies with my wife, and they worked great...until she actually started driving. i lost her less than a quarter mile away. I just purchased a trc-457 for my base. I have about 12 mobile radios and at least as many walkies. I can not put up an antenna and know nobody who does. Is the firestik indoor antenna a good option? All I want to do is reach my children. Would they need they same setup as far as antenna or would mobile antennas be good enough if my antenna is good? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also is an Astatic Silver Eagle a good choice for mike for the 457? Or a turner a better option? Thanks to any and all in advance for their help.
