I am trying to use my hand held CB as a base unit. I would like to use a mag-mounted 2’ Firestick antenna as a base antenna so I could use it on my alternate car when needed. I have already lost an antenna from my truck. So this base antenna set-up would provide a spare antenna if needed. I am not worried about the range. I live on a hill overlooking my small town. The wife says "NO MORE RADIO STUFF!" so I got to keep it cheap.
