Review on Nagoya CB 72 Coil Loaded Magnetic Connector by Mark Lowery

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Range 4.5 miles, tested.

I bought this antenna as a temporary solution when I was looking for a way to install Friestik on my plastic cased 2017 Suburban and I didn't want to drill a hole in it. I could only get 1.3 SWR but rec/xmit is clear. I checked the distance from Westbound 55 at the Memphis exit below the Mississippi River road and bridge with a 5-way CB store at exit 4 in West Memphis. 4.5 km according to Google Maps. These are excellent properties for an antenna of this size! Of course it was at the top of my suburb so the elevation was good and there were no obstacles but I was still impressed. I recommend this product! The SWR was measured with an MFJ-259D SWR Antenna Analyzer.
