You know, my 102" whip just wasn't enough and you know like anything else related to our Jeeps, we always want to go bigger. Bigger lift, bigger tires, bigger fenders, bigger bumpers.... so I thought that certainly a bigger CB antenna would be better right?

Tell me what ya'll think. :thumbsup:

Now if it was a beam on the end of that crank up you'd really have something there. I went to a civil war reinactmant once and alot of the people the had crank ups mounted to the bumper. Very cool !!!

Ok it's obviously (to some) that it is a Ham antenna not a CB antenna. That XJ has quite the set up.

Yeah I figured that was a HAM setup right there... but that is still crazy tall... I'd enjoy the transmissions you'd receive/make with that setup... but would hate having to set that thing up and tear it down.... Not to mention wouldn't want to be sitting in any of those chairs, that close to that ant, when it transmits...
