You can't mix cb antenna with scanner. Different frequencies. The CB is AM, and it's between 26Mhz - 27Mhz. There's also SSB for long distance communication. Well it's longer than CB, which is limited to 5 miles. If you love travelling and talking, then get a unit that is AM/FM/CW/SSB. It'll give you lot of channels and choices. |
