I bought a midland CB for my truck. The truck already had an antenna mounted from an 800MHz radio (which had been removed). I hooked up the CB utilizing that antenna, very fine guage but stiff, about like wire from a steel brush, and about 18 inches in length. End result: range of about two blocks. I also bought a two foot tuneable (?) antenna that I could mount where the 800MHz was. Do you think the problem was the antenna, the cable to the antenna (left over from the 800MHz radio) or something else? Thanks.
