So, I'm thinking I want to have two CB antennas on my truck, one on the roof, probably a roof mounted wilson 1000 with a 66 inch whip, and the other a 4 or 5 foot Firestik mounted on the corner of the rear bumper. Both of these running to an antenna switch, so only one is in use at a time.
I'd like to have the Wilson for use on the highway, or when low hanging trail obstacles aren't an issue, like out in the desert. But when they ARE an issue, I'd like to be able to remove the Wilson (simply screw it off the mount, and cap the mount) and switch to the bumper mounted antenna, which will only be used (and only really useful for) talking close by to other 4x4 vehicles.
Whatcha think? Here's a switch:
