    Easy to install, good reception. Hardly noticeable on my van.

    Bought this for my bro-in-law for Christmas 2021. (Too bad that I cant seem to get one for 2022.) It was pretty much plug & play and worked about as well as those old 20 Center-Load CB antennas of over 30 years ago. However, that very light-duty, flimsy, RG-174 coax cable will have to be dealt with sooner, or later. Do not do hard 90 degree bends, if you can help it. Best, to wrap plastic tape where coax comes into rear of PL-259 connector and where the coax comes-in at the base of the magnet mount antenna, as a stress relief. Still, for what it is, from 1 to 10 miles between mobiles, and about 15 miles from base to mobile, isnt too bad at all.

    Strong magnet. Looks like a antenna on a new car. Range isn’t bad for what it is. Swr is exactly what they claim. Very happy with it. If you’re looking for a modern looking antenna for your car or suv instead of a whip, this will fit the bill.

    A bit pricey for what it is. The antenna tilts about 15 degrees in both directions. Works well for the slopped roof of my van. Pre-adjustment is a big plus

    I got this antenna for a Mazda 3. My wife didn’t like how the Wilson looked on top. Put it on top and hooked it up to Ronald and easy as that it was a 1.0, 1.3, 1.0. I don’t think you can ask for more than that. Did a radio check which I figured would be pointless from my driveway because I live in the boonies and to my surprise I got a load and clear response. The part I wasn’t happy about was UPS shipping. Took 3 days of being out for delivery till they finally decided to drop it off. I wish Amazon gave the option to choose shipping or filter out UPS shippers. Overall was worth the wait because it works far better than I had anticipated.

    Every big Antenna works better then it when tuned. When are the big dogs even turned correctly??? This is just stick on the car. screw the plug into the radio and the SWR is less then 1.3 across the band. Talk 6 miles with 4 watts is doable without going to hell for lying. Can listen to locals without skip over washing them as the big dog, big ears antennas do. It also likes 162 MHz weather stations. Only negative is the 10 year warranty that have to collected in Barcelona, Spain.

    Looks like a standard car antenna on my Honda Fit. If the cable were a foot or so longer it would have gotten 5 stars

    Signals not improved. Many other options out there. Magnet is good.

    The cord was too short to mount at the rear roof of my SUV, so I had to order a PL-259 Male to SO-239 Female cord to wire up the CB at the front. SWR at Ch 1 is around 1, 1.5 at Ch 40, and around 1 at Ch 19. Connections at PL259/SO239 are snug without issues. Receive seems good so far, but very condition dependent. I ran my usual course in the city where I do my GMRS tests and got the typical 1/2 mile to 1 mile range Ive read from other reviews. Ill reserve judgment on range until after I get some interstate miles on this one. I mounted the antenna at the back right corner of my Jeep Liberty. The magnet is very strong and can be difficult to remove, but thats a good thing. I was worried about how loose the antenna might be at the swivel point, but there are rigid lock points that hopefully wont wear out over time. The height should be fine, but I am going to watch it around low limbs and parking garages. Im satisfied so far, except for the cable length issue.

Compact and discreet, the NEW VIRGINIA antenna easily mounts on any vehicle without any drilling or holes. This low profile antenna has a strong magnetic base, comes pre-tuned, adjustable antenna angles, is weather channel compatible, and guaranteed for 10 years against any manufacturing defects! Recommended for installation on cars, vans, and light duty trucks.
