Hi Everyone

I have been into this hobby since 1974
when I pick up the microphone on my dad CB radio.
Anyways I really wanted to try and get back into
the hobby. Doe anyone know anything about the
Workmans 39 inch base station antenna, Does it
work pretty good ?

Anyways I am fixing to buy a Cobra 2000 GTL
Mint in the box. Never peaked. or anything done
to ot. It still in a sealed box. Yes it in New
condtion and was stored away in a warehouse.
This will be my base station radio. along with
a D104 Golden eagle microphone.

Thanks

Skw44, welcome to the copper forum. I don't get to get on here as much as I used to, but the website is just loaded with information from many years of posts.

Good luck on the new venture.

Welcome Skw44 to the Copper Electronics Forum. You can find some very good info here. I would like to say a 39in antenna is not long enough to really work well on CB. Just think a 1/4 wave is 108in in the CB band. I would get a longer antenna to go with that Cobra. You will be more happier.
