What are the components of a base station CB system?

Remember, the longer the CB antenna, the more potential range that you will have. The basic components for a Base Station CB System include a CB radio, power supply (if you are using a mobile CB radio instead of a base station CB radio), coax, and an antenna.

What is a base station & how does it work?

A base station is generally a radio system that is set up in a fixed location such as house or building. Since a fixed location allows one to install a much taller antenna than an antenna on a vehicle, you can get significantly more potential range. Remember, the longer the CB antenna, the more potential range that you will have.

How do I connect my mobile CB radio to my power supply?

The power supply is plugged into your wall outlet and your mobile CB radio will be connected to the power supply. This is generally cheaper than selecting the Galaxy DX2547 even though you would be purchasing two products (mobile CB radio and power supply) instead on one product, the DX2547. We have selected the DX959 and PS12 for this kit.
