I have a realistic trc-418 cb hooked up in my truck. The antenna is a 102'' one from radio shack. It is mounted on the side of my toolbox with a mirror mount bracket and an antenna spring. I am new to cb radios but it seems to me that I am getting a lot of static and there is only a few channels that I can ever hear anyone on. I ordered a new mic but have not yet received it because my original one was not broadcasting, only keying in. I would greatly appreciate any advice on ways to improve this setup and any other general info that I should know. Thanks
