Hi everyone.
Does anyone use the Sirio Hp4000 or the Sirio Performer 5000 mobile antennae.
If so which is the best for CB, like everyone am looking for distance.
Will not be using high power as its not allowed.
In relation to either of the above, they come in mag mount, which I think
is the best option for me, they are also available in through / fixed mount,
does the through / fixed mount type require an RF ground, I am fitting on the
roof of my car so would rather not have to add a ground wire.
If no RF ground is required, then is there any technical advantage to a mag
mount vs a bolt on type antenna, as I could add a bracket to the roof rack
to use a bolt on type if it was going to provide better performance.
I appreciate your comments, thanks in advance.

@Tin soldier I will avoid the amp, there is a lot of harrasment here
now since covid, the powers that be got used to dictating, they check
everything on us natives, so amp would definitely result in trouble.

If you do buy a big sirio.... Make sure you get a genuine sirio Mag mount with it as some places offer inferior types that may or may not be up to the job
