UHF CB in Van


Hermit

Recommended Posts

Hi all, has anyone installed a UHF CB radio in their caravan?

I am looking at installing my Uniden which has the Mic AND Speaker, and all controls in the hand piece (new model with 80ch). I want to wire it up so that the hand piece can be used inside and also unplugged and then plugged in outside under the awning.

I am interested in where on the outside the antenna was mounted and which type of mount you used?

Do you travel with the antenna in place OR do you remove it?

Pictures of the antenna mounted on the van would be helpfull.

Any ideas greatly appreciated

Regards

Rob

Hi Rob

Be aware that the rig will consume heaps of power when turned on.

We will have one in our new van but it is something that can not be left on. On only if you are expecting coms.

A marine swivel mount as per the Next G aerial installations will be the easiest and can be lowered while travelling & raised for use.
