    CB antenna ground plane?

    On the DX or XL rigs, the CB antenna is mounted to the drivers side mirror mount. Is that a good ground plane (i.e. is the mount grounded to the chassis)? If not, it could affect the effectiveness of the antenna and performance of the CB radio (range). For all those RF tech folks out there...

    Tracvision R5 Antenna

    I bought an old trailer that has a Tracvision R5 installed, with no information included. On-line, I read that it picks up satellite signals but.....do I have to pair it with purchasing a cable company contract? I DO see some flyers about Dish but I'd REALLY like to avoid that! I know, I know...

    Furrion Rooftop Antenna

    Can I use Furrion's Omni-directional Rooftop Antenna (FAN73B7C) for wi-fi, without purchasing the 4G LTE/WiFi Router (FAN17B83)? The FAQs state the antenna / router can be used as a WiFi booster, even if the LTE data plan is not activated. Does that imply that I need both? I want to use the...

    Sunseeker 3170ds Sirius Antenna Wiring

    I just bought a 2015 3170ds, and see the Sirius antenna embedded on the roof. I cannot find the plug in end though. I looked behind the Jensen device. All I could find is the place for the SXV100 bus. Any ideas on where else to look for it?
