OK. Decent, unobtrusive CB antenna? And, good place to grab one in the Springs....or just get one from Amazon?

 

Generally the bigger they are the better reception and transmission they have. You'll have to decide on how to make the trade off with looks vs performance.

 

well, the shortest I would go would be the Firestik fiberglass at 48".

Personally I prefer the wire whips, mine is just over 5'. It needs to be at least 12" above the cab and preferably as close to the center of the vehicle as possible as the vehicle acts somewhat directionally on transmission and reception.
I'd contact @Ice Horse about where to buy in the Springs. She seems to pop in late at night.

 

Almost wanted to go home early. But this will help me work a little longer.



I think i even beat Star wars today.

 

You could always get a folding mount. I have a 4 foot with a folding mount so whenever I'm not using it you can't see it at all. And the readings with the SWR are the same with and without the folding portion so it doesn't change anything.

Like dis.

 

you may have beat me, but I drink better beer.

 

Free beer is... Free beer.

Gotta stay hydrated.

 

Round two, unfortunately there's no fruit to make it healthier.

 

Love me some Blue Moon, but for some reason it tastes better in a glass compared to the bottle for me. Like I'll buy it in the bottles and then pour it into a glass.

 

I am disappoint. That's Coors swill. 5.4%, weak.

 

PBR is a much better choice. I always have a 30 pack, give or take, in the garage fridge.

 

All 'good' beer is properly/best consumed from a glass, and preferably the right glass (shape) for the style. The shape, and just having the wider opening of the top, allows for smelling the aromas while drinking. - roommate of a brewery owner who is not a beer snob (he isn't really, at least on the overall spectrum, but you do have to know your craft and the aroma thing really is true, and for a lot more than just beer, as taste and smell are pretty closely linked) Swill and casual drinking, doesn't matter, though I guess nothing should ever be consumed directly from a can.

... who am I kidding. I don't like any beer.

 

I was just busting their balls.

 

this is pretty accurate. Glasses do make a difference depending on the style..but its mostly for advertising reasons. Always a glass if its pricey beer. if you can't smell it. you can't taste it. Oh. and whisky is good either way.

 

No seating, get a beating

 

Always pour my bottles into a glass.

 

I mounted that bed rail to my Cab a couple weeks ago and put the Tred Pro's on. Waiting on T-Slot nuts off Amazon, cause I rigged it with some slot nuts that sorta half assed work..

 

.....did he get the sticker or did he not
