Description
The Francis Pre-Tuned Antenna goes from the box to the airwaves in no time at all. Quickly mount your antenna without the hassle of a long setup time. These antennas don't usually require tuning, but it's important to test SWR to ensure safe operation levels. Why? Lack of a ground plane or other issues unrelated to antenna length can cause high SWR levels and may potentially damage radio equipment if not corrected.

Choosing Antenna Length
The longer your antenna, the better your CB system will perform. So we recommend using the longest antenna you possibly can! That being said, 3' and 4' antennas are the most popular choice of pickup truck and off-road vehicle owners, while 5' antennas are more often found on larger trucks and semis.
Here are the approximate ranges you'll get with different length fiberglass antennas.
- 3' Long - 3 to 4 miles
- 4' Long - 4 to 6 miles
- 5' Long - 5 to 7 miles
Choosing Antenna Color
This is a 100% personal decision! Choose your favorite color, or what goes best with your vehicle.
