I've got a Hustler (1970/1980's era) CB antenna. Wondering if anyone on
the list has had any experience using CB antennas for milcom aero type
monitoring without cutting the antenna. Presently I basically use portable
antennas attached to the base/portable scanners. The antenna would be
mounted at ground level (perhaps just a 5 foot pipe) & the antenna itself is
about 20 feet high, I would not use the radials for safety reasons. Will it
work better than the portable antennas on the back of the scanners? Any
idea as to the difference in signal strength when compared to an all band
antenna (e.g. "Scantenna")?
Thanks
Ken
