We've designed our RV packages to include everything you need for a quality CB and antenna installation for your RV. Our packages are based around popular RV radios and antennas and take the guesswork out of picking the right components.
Radio: This package is built around the Cobra 18 WX ST which is a popular and affordable CB for RVs. The 18 WX ST supports ten NOAA weather channels for staying up-to-date on local weather conditions. While most CB speakers are mounted on the bottom of the unit's chassis, the 18 WX ST features a front mounted speaker for ultimate clarity when the unit is mounted in-dash. The radio also features Cobra's exclusive SoundTracker noise-reducing technology, a heavy-duty nine foot microphone cord and a generous two year warranty.
Antenna Kit Options: The antenna and coax are the most important element of a CB installation. Accordingly, we include quality kits from Firestik, a highly respected antenna manufacturers. Each kit includes an antenna(s), coax and all required mounting hardware. For useful information on installing CB antennas on RVs, please refer to these tips from Firestik and Wilson. We offer you a choice of three different antenna kits to provide the ultimate in mounting flexibility and customization.
- Firestik Single CB Antenna Kit: Perfect for installations on mirror bars or on any grounded vertical surface. Includes a Firestik "FS" antenna, coax and a versatile 3-way mount.
- Firestik Dual CB Antennas Kit: Similar to the previously mentioned kit but includes dual antennas and mounts for co-phased dual antenna installations.
- Firestik No-Ground Plane Kit: If you want to mount your antenna on a fiberglass surface with no electrical ground you'll need a no-ground plane (NGP) kit like this one. NGP antenna kits create their own counter-poise within the coax and don't need to be grounded to the vehicle's chassis. This kit from Firestik includes a molded side-mount for a clean and professional looking installation.
SWR Meter and Jumper: Every kit includes a SWR meter and coax jumper to tune your antenna for optimal performance. If you're not familiar with the tuning process you can read why it's important and how to do it properly at the
CB Resources page.
