Channel 5 CB Shop — Local services in West Memphis

Bought a freightliner antenna mount, antenna, and coax. They said you HAD to use an antenna with a ground wire (grounded to antenna mount...the exact same place an antenna without a ground strap grounds itself) Also said I HAD to get 18 feet of coax if I was installing coax behind the overhead bins to the radio. I fell for it, and it was bs. Antenna was bad (wilson top load with ground strap). After a week, had another shop (a motorola dealer i know) check swr and was getting 8. Replaced with a cheap francis, down to 2. Coax also bad. Replaced with 9 foot of coax, swr down to 1.1. If a cb shop cant make coax without screwing it up, no way they are gonna ever work on my connex. Thanks for screwing me out...

I would never come here! Just spent an hour here watching the guy try to take short cuts and fumble his way around only to refuse to do it the right way when I told him not to cut my door boot and to take the truck apart correctly and run the wire the right way. This after being charged $160 to run only 1 wire! He was giving me every excuse in the book to not run both sides for the $160. He refused to do the work right and refunded me my money. Now my origonal wire is cut and i can even listen to my cb, plus i wasten an hour!...

Their tech checked my swr and stated it was 1.2 so I put my Ranger 2950 in and the swr is through the roof. Got my meter and swr 5 across complete band. Very disappointed, this could of burned up a very expensive radio. Have been here before and thought they were a stand up shop but apparently properly setting my antenna was too much when he could make an easy $10 lying about the swr. Just make sure you look at their meter and DON'T TAKE THE...
