 Good basic antenna with good reception and no need for grounding October 13, 2007
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I installed this with a Uniden 538 pro and it works very well. The only thing I don't like is that it's not encased in plastic like the fiberglass whips are, so when it's raining or icy my guess is that the antenna has the potential to create a circuit with the body of my car. Just speculation at this point though - overall I'm happy for the price.
NOTE: AMAZON BENT THIS ANTENNA TO FIT IN THE BOX. I had to spend about an hour getting back to straight, and still it's bent a bit. Scum bags.
 A1500 Cobra Antenna February 20, 2007

I clearly ordered an HG A1500 Cobra CB Antenna and I received an HG A1000 Cobra CB Antenna. One of the other reviews shows the same thing happened to them. Before you order from Amazon you better check if you can get it at a local store first so you know what you're getting.
 cobra cb antenna February 7, 2007

The Cobra antenna that I received was of a very good quality and performed very well with my Cobra 40 channel SSB Radio. The only problem was that I had ordered the HG A1500 High Gear CB Antenna and received the HG A1000 Antenna instead. It is the same antenna except it is about 15 inches shorter. I decided to keep it instead of going to all the trouble sending it back for an exchange.
Decent magnetic mount CB antenna January 12, 2007

This came properly packaged in a large cardboard box (no problems with damage in transit). I inserted the antenna whip into the base and tightened a set screw with the enclosed allen wrench. The magnetic mount held the antenna securely in the middle of the roof of our van. The cable was sufficiently long to run from the antenna, through the rear hatch door seal, down to the floor of the van, along the floor to the front seat where it attached to a cb radio. Since I did not have an SWR meter, I was not able to adjust the antenna. Even so, I was getting a good mile radius around me where I had solid radio contact (this is from a Cobra hand-held CB). Antenna stayed firm on the roof even though I was driving 70mph for much of the time. We got into some freezing rain which formed a layer of ice around the antenna (and that hurt transmission), but did not cause any damage to the antenna.
 Add a good punch to any mobil handheld unit September 18, 2004

I pick up one of these at my local Frys with a BNC to Motorola adapter ($2.29) and as soon as I plugged in the ant. tossed it up on the roof of may van and said "Breaker Break can anyone out there hear me" I got a response "NO! ha ha ha ha". Yep I was in the CB game with my Midland Handheld unit and this ant.
Worth the $20 to carry a better rang ant. then the "Rubber Duck" most handhelds come with.
Not the best ant. out there but seem everybody carries it and it works pretty well.
