    Thank you MikeKK4AIF. I contacted someone who has some documents consisting of the subjects here in Turkey.They are in Turkish,and possibly -with your words the regulations will be the legal code. I think it will be boring to start studying again at the age of 63,but I want to have a look before...

    Well,at the very beginning I told that I am completely green on these radio things.While I was making some search I read in the listings that some are dual band (VHF and UHF) still some others are triple band ( HF,VHF and UHF) Sellers also typed the term " Multi band " so I thought this is a...

    Thanks again Matt and M813A1.I have not installed the AB-15 on the jeep yet.I have it at home and just dismantelled it to see what is in there.The mast sections I had were ANT-129 ( 8 pieces/circa 2.60 meters) but I found out that the thread at the bottom end does not fit in the AB-15 and that...

    Sorry all for my questions,but ; I come accross with " Baluns " and " Tuners" while I'm going through this issue. 1.How necessary is a balun while adopting a military antenna(MS-116,117,118) and base (AB-15) to a CB? 2. So far as I understand some tuners are used only to adjust the SWR and then...

    When I unscrew the AB-15 , I get two gaskets between the two halves of the insulator along with the grounding plate. Now where do both of the gaskets go while mounting on the bracket?One on top of the bracket between the upper half of the insulator and the bracket while the other is between...

    So far as I know all three sections -MS-116,117 and 118 have kinda spiral bottom ends instead of machine thread to allow adjust the height by turning each section or perhaps only one clockwise or otherwise.No idea if this will help to achieve edequate height.However; When extra height is needed...

    On a listing of somebody I read that an optional & shorter MS-118K is available.But since trimming works then why to pay more.

    Newbie CB Radio Questions

    Thank you.I have already ordered a set of those MS-116A,117A & 118A sections. I found out that the ones I've had are ANT 129 22-30Mhz.But the threaded male end of the bottom section does not fit in the AB-15/GR.May be kinda adaptor required but no idea if such a thing is available. I will...
