RT-S PE#0391
So okay ... I have two shortee Antennas ... one will replace the existing RT-S whip for AM/FM/NOAA.
The other I want to install on the opposite side of the trunk, and then adapt a CB cable with which I can do one of two things:
1) Have the cable tied and ready to use in my trunk so in an emergency, I can get off my Spyder and hook it into my Midland 75-822 Portable CB in case I'm stuck on the side of the road (e.g. on Northern I-87 toward Lake Placid where there is no cell reception) and need more range; or ...
2) Wearing my portable CB, I want to run the cable from the antenna to tie and stow in the space between the passenger backrest and the passenger seat. This way I could theoretically hook to to my Midland while ryding.
The basic question is: What parts / cable do I need to make my second shortee a into a CB antenna (the scenarios were for drama and effect
)?
