4Reak Show's build/use/nonsense

Progress on the CB job.

First of all, cleaned up that nasty wiring debacle from 7th injector install 1.0 from the first go-around. Here was the end result. Works out great.



And got the CB mounted and tested. Had to sand down the edges of the trim piece for the lower half. Some websites claim it to be a single DIN.... It's close. A hair big but end result is friggin awesome.



One of the 2 additional things was the audio interrupter which highjacks the main stereo speakers whenever the CB has an incoming. CBM-U4 Audio Interrupter – SxS Radios

In the brief testing I did it seemed to work great.

The other item claims to utilize the stock amfm antenna for CB use... Well we have to see on that one. Initial testing inside the garage with a SWR gauge indicated wide open signal (worst case scenario). Maybe parking in the open as you're supposed to will warrant better results... I'm pessimistic on this one.

the little adjusting screw didn't seem to do much of anything.

Anyway I'll report back after an actual field test. Otherwise, a hood mount Antenna is an easy fix. Only a $30 gamble.
