Firestik Indoor CB Base Antenna
[Firestik IBA-5]

I have had this antenna for only a week, but I'm so impressed with this product and would recommend this to anyone who wants a high performance indoor antenna.

This antenna out-performs any outside antenna I've ever owned with an SWR of 1.2:1. That is impressive! The only alteration I made was an additional ground(spiderweb) pattern on the radials which is connected to the base(ground) of the antenna, as wellas minimal tuning of the tip. 5 stars!

Setting up the antenna was a snap. Trying to get it to work in an attic was allot of work and expense. I read and watched the video and the setup might work outside on top of allot of metal and a great ground. I went to the firestick site and the section on the installation in an attic and they said you needed at least nine square feet of metal and a good ground. I used four(2x2) 24 guage sheets of steel and 10 gage wire to ground. With two sheets the best SWR was 2.5. With three sheets 1.4-1.5. Four sheets avg 1.25. Its working fine now.
