I suggest that you use a center loaded antenna (Hustler mod RG-27 for CB) on a mirror-arm mount.  I have a 2006 PC 2400 and I am using a Hustler on 2m mounted on a truck mirror mount and it works well.  W3DOT

We just bought our second PC, a 2552. I am trying to figure out where to locate my CB so that it is out of the way. We seldom use it and typically use it only when tied up in traffic and we are trying to hear what the truckers are saying about the situation. In the last one we put it in the lower opening of the center console but that usues up the convienent space. Also our installer said that the only real solution was to mount a magnetic antenna on the hood, a location that looks sort of like Bubba installed it. I would like to hear from others about how they have set up their CB. Bill
