Not bad. Might try dual 102 whips on the truck. With LMR 400 for the coax. You'll notice the coax won't get as hot and being nearly a 1/4 wave will help a much more than those firesticks. There is a reason they call them firesticks. If you push too much power the coils become giant inductive heating coils and they can cook them selfs!! 102 inch whips are the way to go while mobile though.
I have never had to convert one or do anything but hook up the coax and make sure your radio is dead keying around 2watts unless the linear you purchase is a high drive but most are not i never key more than 2 just to be safe
Just a heads up im you talk on ur truck set up a lot you might want to get rid of them whips. I know dual whips are cool but for the heat ur running not good. have you checked the swrs on the setup.
Like said that is just a friendly heads up. All in all great setup
Thanks Rckid I only have the one on the Drivers side hooked up I really don't like the fire sticks at all, My receive is horrible I am going to change to a 102 inch steel whip maby this weekend Thanks for the info thoe I will upload some more cb related videos soon 73's The Ramblin' Man Tennessee
Yup no problem. Im in the same boat lol. I got a cobra 200 and running a firestick. Granted the swr's are with in a good range they aint the best. I got to go to a willson 5000 soon. 73's KEEP THE DIRTY SIDE UP SHINEY SIDE DOWN. You got boots.
