Antenna is of good quality and tuned easily. It was received in a timely manner. You do need to order the base adaptor separately which was something I missed when ordering.

"Ears" are severely lacking on this antenna. Compared new 3' Firestik to an old fiberglass antenna I had. Both tested SWRs at about 1.4:1. Radio output power is 25% higher on old antenna. QSOs with base station 15 miles away were loud and strong on old antenna- new Firestik could not receive the station and I was below the noise in identical tests for his perspective. I would not recommend this antenna for anything other than Channel 19.

For starters I'll say I have 5 different cb antennas and multiple CB's a swr meter ect. The wraps are so close to each other in order to fit 25ft of wire on a 3' rod 18ft of the 25ft is at the upper foot of antenna. The problem is if the waves don't hit the antenna at the perfect angle the wave is severely distorted. Hands down I have a 12" 1/4 wave antenna that gets better reception then this 5/8 wave. Going in terrain. Like 1.5miles verse .10 miles

This antenna is easy to tune with its head screw. Strong and flexible while delivering excellent transmission range for vehicles.
