Doug,

Check the pricing for Firestik antennaes and accessories at
www.valcoelectronics.com, their prices are much cheaper.

Subject: DML: Firestik vs. Radio Shack

I'm looking to install my CB in my Dak soon and I want to run dual
antennae's behind the cab. I checked out Firestick.com and really liked
their product, but $80.00 for the setup????? I visited Radio Shack Last
night and took a look at what they had to offer. They have a dual 2ft. and a
dual 4ft. setup, both are around $45.00. The both had a new antennae that
looked VERY similar to the Firestik. They had the adjustable potentiometer
in the top and a lifetime guarantee. Is there such a big difference in the
Firestik that I should spend the extra money? I'm not hat serious about CB
ing that I feel I need the absolute best, but I don't want crap either.

  Any Suggestions????
