the 102" 1/4 wave ss whip needs a hefty base mount, which i dont have. for my needs (a whimpy 4w max handheld cb) my vswr ranges from 1:1 to 2:1 and the cb radio power meter peaks out on the 4w line across all channels. for now this is acceptable. when/if i go to a better radio cb i might think about doing a better antenna setup....If you are planning on using a ground plane I would highly suggest going to Radioshack and picking up a 102" Stainless steel whip antenna. If you run that and still have high SWR's you can be rest assured it's not the antenna as I have gotten a max SWR of 1.1:1 across all channels with this antenna on my Jeep. The only variable to deal with after that is the coax and ground.
