Not sure what section to put this in.  Has anyone used the cb antenna mount that mounts behind the left taillight?
Quadratec has a genraic one and Teraflex has one.

i have one on my TJ.  not sure what brand, think it might be teraflex.  i like it, just make sure you get a flexible spring thing to attach to your antenna so it won't get all bent.

Get a Firestik II antenna.  They are tunable, and a great value.

How about the Cobra 75 WXT radio?  It allows you to take the head unit out of the jeep.

I have one of those and can't complain.  I don't like to have things where people can see them through my windows.  My neighborhood isn't great.  It's also nice because I don't need to take up a whole lot of room.  I use mine with a Firestick II.

I have one and it's good enough.  I always have reception problems, but I think it's just because my antenna is out of tune.  I should get a SWR to fix it, but I always take it off unless wheeling.

Does the antenna mounted behind the taillight get in the way when the soft top is down?
