hey, I just got the Uniden 520xl also, about 2 days ago from Amazon, for 53.99, a buck cheaper than the Petro had the 510.
I also got a 3' Firestik antenna, 18' coax and a mount.

but hell if I know how to put it all together!




I might have to pass on this run.

I have a Cobra (soundTracker)with weather ban, that I got from Chrismas persent.. Someone told me that I needed to Tune the antenna...Is this true??

JJ - I'm sure you can find someone to help you install your CB and antenna. I'd bring it all on the run on Sat. if you're going.

cchaser - you should tune your antenna with a SWR meter. I believe a few in the group have them.

JJ,,, don't let that small problem stop you from coming on the run... You would be suprised at the talent in this club... Not to mention that there are several loaner radios, it they can't get yours working... You gotta be there,,,, It's the adventure that counts... See ya there... Phil

I'm not going to let a little CB radio stop me from going 4x4ing ..I have it installed already the weather ban works so maybe, just maybe it woun't need tuning We'll find out soon


See you guys tomorrow

Your antenna will need to be tuned , even though it seems like it will work now. You will be ok to listen to it untill you tune it , but you could damage the circuitry if you transmit . You should have no problem getting it tuned before the run , in Searchlight. Seeyou tomorrow.

Cool, I'll see you there. On the way past Horizon Ridge and 95 there is a Chevron Station with a Jack-in-the-box. I have to stop and pick up another Jeeper that will be going, too. It should be just a quick off and then back on. Then it will be non stop to Searchlight. All aboard!!!

See you at Smith's, Valle Verde and 215.

Geno has a SWR meter to tune a cb antenna.
Give him a call to make sure he will have it out there with him.
