Complete PNI CB antenna kit with magnetic mounting
The PNI Trucker 9000 PL + PNI 145/PL magnetic base kit gives you the main components needed to install a high-performance CB antenna on a car, van or truck without drilling the vehicle body.
The set combines the PNI Trucker 9000 PL LED CB antenna with a strong 145 mm magnetic base, a 4 metre RG58 coaxial cable and a PL259 plug for connection to a compatible CB radio.
PNI Trucker 9000 PL CB antenna
The Trucker 9000 PL is a long vehicle CB antenna designed for reliable mobile radio communication. Its 140 cm stainless-steel construction, 50 Ohm impedance and vertical polarization make it suitable for CB installations on passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and trucks.
- Operating frequency: 26–28 MHz
- Antenna length: 140 cm
- Maximum applied power: 1000 W
- Impedance: 50 Ohm
- Minimum SWR: ≤ 1.2 around the centre of the CB band
- Polarization: vertical
- Material: stainless steel
- Mounting type: PL threaded connection
- LED-equipped coil: distinctive Trucker 9000 design
145 mm magnetic base — install without drilling
The included PNI 145/PL magnetic base allows the antenna to be mounted quickly on a suitable metal vehicle surface without making permanent holes in the bodywork.
The 145 mm magnetic base provides a stable support for the antenna. A protective rubber layer underneath the base helps protect the vehicle paint and the internal connections.
- Magnetic base diameter: 145 mm
- Coaxial cable: 4 m RG58
- Radio connector: PL259
- Base weight: approximately 730 g
- Installation: removable magnetic mounting
Complete connection from antenna to CB radio
Unlike the standalone Trucker 9000 antenna, which is supplied without a connection cable or mounting base, this kit already includes the magnetic mounting system and coaxial cable required to connect the antenna to a CB radio equipped with a compatible antenna socket.
For best performance, position the magnetic base on a clean, flat metal area of the vehicle, preferably near the centre of the roof where practical.
Important: check the SWR before transmitting
After installation, the antenna should be checked and tuned using an SWR meter before regular transmission. Depending on the installation, the antenna whip may require adjustment to obtain the optimal SWR value.
Correct antenna tuning helps improve transmission efficiency and protects the CB radio’s output stage from excessive reflected power.
