Default CB without Tour Pac

Is it possible to still be able to use your CB when the tour Pac is removed? How do you deal with the antenna?
Thanks
Rick

H-D makes an antenna that mounts between the frame and hard bag on the left side. It's a quick and easy install.

If you look under the mat in the tour pack the large metal plate is what's called a ground plane...

Cb's can't work with any accuracy, without a good ground plane, even the handheld Cb's have this built in... altho the range is quite short, it's it's adequate for
emergency communication... ( ie flat tire, out of gas) Altho the cell phone has changed all that now...

The CB usefulness has gone away to a point... But there is a solution... it's calledNextel Technology... If that was implemented in a platform
that could be done on a broader plane... it would revolutionize what we know as the Citizen Band Radio...

Just my .02 worth..

The first one I bought was for the stereo and the CB. Bought it at the dealer. I can't find my parts book to give you the number. I'll keep looking and if I find it I'll let you know.

Use a marine antenna with a built in ground plane

You can get a truckers mirror mount kit from Radio Shack that will work off of the crash bar rails.

Ricarro, the part # is 76340-98, FLTR/I CB Antenna kit. I have been running it on my Ultra when I take my T/P off. It mounts on the right side support bracket and sits between it and the right saddlebag. It uses a base loaded antenna and works fairly well.
