...base-station CB antenna on my home? I have a mobile style antenna that is meant for a car and uses a magnet to attach to the roof of a car. I want to know if I could use it as an antenna for my base station CB radio. My plan was to solder and/or screw four steel backing sheets together and then mount them on my roof, to make a flat surface and to use as a ground plane. Then I could take advantage of the magnetic base of the antenna and just stick it in the middle of the four baking sheets. Will this work?
