Anyone still make or sell the outdoor logic CB Antenna mounts?

[Fit4Action]

I have searched, but that thread is 3 years old and I do not know what to look for, for a rear mount CB antenna mount. What do you guys use? Do you just bend some metal to your whim and drill bolts through it? :shrug:

Following! I've been searching as well.

I'm the one that makes these now. I don't have any left, and I'm working on a new design too. Here's a link.

For the win!

Sigh, I hate to be that nerdy guy, but corner mounting your CB antenna isn't the most efficient, in terms of signal quality, method of mounting. I highly recommend roof mounting a magnet mount dead center of your roof. The metal ground plane is MUCH larger, and you can expect to see a much better SWR. For CB, Wilson makes great, affordable mag mount antennas and for HAM, check out Diamond antennas (anntenae?)

But those don't look nearly as cool as corner mounts :bounce:

On CL (los angeles) recently, I found a local guy who had few left over.

Also I think I saw toytec make similar ones?

That nerdy guy will look really nerdy with a big old ham antenna on his Japanese RHD Landcruiser.

I think it's an argument of good and good enough. Most of the time for just trail communication, rear corner mount is good enough. However a good reason a mag mount is a great idea is if you're in the middle of nowhere and a tree falls on your rig or your rig is upside down, you can move the antenna to get a good signal.

I have 3 mounts left. Asking 41 paypaled shipped in the lower 48 states



Not as cool looking but just as functional 1/8 steel

 

[meRockboost]

^ I got one and it's pretty nice! Now I just need a CB

 

[MStudt]

This is the current mount I have. Working with the cutter, and should hear back very soon. When I get them they'll be $55 shipped. If any member want to start a Group Buy for these let me know. I don't have time to monitor a GB, and people want them. Plus I'll take care of the person who puts this together. PM me if you're interested.

Wow. Intense. But he drove out! 4runners are tanks!

Or you could rip the rear suspension out of your rig after 11 years of wheeling it!

In this case here, the corner mounted CB antenna was useless. If you look close you'll see the smaller antenna on the roof. We switched to the VHF radios this summer, and I won't go back to the CB. Pricey for sure, but worth it. We were talking to the motorhomes at basecamp 12 miles away, just like they were 100 yards down the trail.
