What devices are CB antennas used for?
CB antennas are available for handheld, in-car, desktop and outdoor radio transceivers.
When buying a hand-held CB antenna, the following details are important
Most of the hand-held transceivers or walkie-talkies used by amateur radio operators and carriers operate with a CB antenna in the 27 megahertz band. Although more modern industrial and security transceivers are now primarily equipped with UHF or VHF antennas, Citizens Band technology is still a very reliable choice.
Whether you're an enthusiastic amateur radio operator or a truck driver covering hundreds of kilometres a day, choosing the right CB antenna is essential for clear communication and smooth operation. What should you look out for in this case? When buying a handheld CB antenna, make sure that it has the right connector for the handheld transceiver radio, otherwise you will need an adapter, which will increase the loss of RF output power.
What to look out for when choosing a CB radio for your car?
Car-mounted CB radios are great for incredibly exciting off-road rally races and less interesting but more important industrial jobs. In fact, even in today's world of mobile phone-based communications, in-car CB transceiver radios play an important role in many industries. And CB radio is only effective if the owner of the in-car equipment ensures perfect communication by using a quality CB antenna, a power cable with sufficient power and, if necessary, a CB amplifier. If the antenna is to be installed in the car, the length of the CB radio antenna cable should also be considered.
If you choose too short a length, you may not be able to use the CB radio properly. And if the cable is too long, it could even lead to an accident. Another thing to bear in mind is that the ideal position for a car CB antenna is in the middle of the roof of the car. For trucks and lorries, this means the centre of the cab.
Another fundamental question to consider when making your choice is whether you need a retractable or magnetic type. Or would you prefer to mount the antenna on an antenna bracket, for example on the mirror arm? In the latter case, it may be necessary to purchase a cable and a connector.

What to look out for when buying a CB antenna?
As mentioned above, CB radios use shortwave in the frequency band around 27 MHz, but there are differences in coverage. Many antennas use a frequency band between 26 and 28 MHz to be able to receive a variety of channels. The common lambda for receiving radio waves are 1/4, 1/2 and 5/8, which have a number of advantages and disadvantages in terms of performance. We will not go into the details, but in general the longer the CB antenna, the better its range and reception. There are limits to this range, however, and the maximum range within which reception is still adequate is usually 20 km. Another important detail to consider is the maximum power and signal amplification capability. The power of CB antennas usually ranges from 50 to 500 watts.
The impedance in these cases is always 50 ohms. But there is one more important detail to pay attention to. This is the choice of the right connector. There are differences here too. You can choose PL, BNC or TNC connectors for your CB antenna. If you do not have a plug that is compatible with your antenna, you will not be able to connect it. This is not a danger with handheld antennas, where you simply have to wind the antenna onto the device.
Can you get a CB antenna on the roof?
Yes. If you are looking for a rooftop antenna, the first thing to do is to find out how big an antenna you can fit on your roof and still attach it securely. From the point of view of lightning protection, it is also important how much cable is needed for the radio and the route it has to take.
What is the difference between CB antennas?
Basically, gain and radiation characteristics are the two most significant differences.
How do CB antennas work?
When the transmitter passes current into the CB antenna, the antenna responds by generating a magnetic field - this magnetic field forms the signal itself. When this magnetic wave reaches another antenna, it induces a current on the surface of the receiving antenna. This current is then transformed by the receiver to make it ring, i.e. to make a sound, and the other party receives the message.
Distribution of CB radios and antennas is one of the core activities of DND Telecom Ltd
