[SixClub] CB whip for 6m mobile??

[Richard Joey Fiero II W5TFW]

 Larry,

I have 1 on my 4x4 its cut down to about 56" but it takes the trees with no 
problem.
 I have never had success trying to tune one at 102" for 6 meters.

Have any of you folks run a 102" steel whip for 6m with acceptable results?
  If yes, was it direct connect or did you have to use a tuner or trim the 
whip? I'm now useing a 5/8 wave 2m roof mount with switchbox and have to 
toggle between radios, which is a drag. I havent used 11m since I quit 
trucking so the 102" whip is just laying around waiting for a job.
Thanks gang!
