President Electronics New Virginia (Formerly Called New York UP) Magnetic Mount CB Radio Antenna

Okay, I suppose it probably doesnt work *exactly* as well as a 108 whip. But this shorty is a range-monster. It works great. I hear everything! And I get excellent reports, even from the (distant) big guns. Amazing!! I dont know how President does it? Excellent!

Easy install, strong magnet, added a coax extension of 10. SWR is 1.4 on 1 and 40. Picks up 3 to 7 miles on highway based on terrain. Picks up skip, works well

The connection cable is too short. If you have a midsize SUV, or plan on running the cable from the trunk you should also get an extension cord.

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

So was worried about it, because you don’t have to tune it. I really gives you a low SWR on the meter.

Initially I was disappointed due to a too short coax when trying to install in my crew cab pickup with the antenna mounted center rear of the roof. I bought a 10 extension, which was too long, figuring the SWR would be terrible. For whatever reason the SWR just would not work so I tried a few radio check calls and was getting out a couple of miles with clear signal all the way. Pres Bill radio. I am happy.

Im only giving 5 stars because it is exactly what it says it is, and does exactly what it says it will do. Its a good working antenna. Its not the best one ever made, but anyone looking for a cosmetically pleasing and good working antenna, this is it. There is no tuning available on this but overall as low swr. It makes it quick to install and get you transmitting.

Easy to install with a very low SWR that doesnt require a lot of work to get low. Its 1.1 for me out of the box and placed in the center of my Toyota Sienna van. Great reception on the President Randy! I hear stations from hundreds of miles away on the DX but Im still in the mud to anyone beyond 5 miles line of sight or so. Recommend using an RM KL203P amp and the President McKinley with this antenna to get out a little better. Great starter antenna for people who dont really want to be adjusting for SWR all the time. About as plug and play as you can get for a magmount.

I bought this antenna for my pickup truck and i cant believe how well it works. I used to have a 102 inch whip years ago on my vehicle and decided to get a radio for my new pickup and i was very impressed with it. Low noise high gain and low SWR all this from this small antenna. I Highly Recommend this antenna to anyone that needs a good performing CB antenna. Its got low SWR from 26.5 to 28.5
