For a CB radio to work, you need a CB antenna to go along with it. The antenna also needs to be turned to work properly. This requires the use of an SWR (sanding wave ratio) meter that will work for CB frequencies (approx. 26 - 27 MHz). Some shops that sell CB antennas will do this. Some auto shops too.



There are a number of different kinds of antennas. 102" whips work the best, but they are the most unwieldy. Center and base loaded antennas are more common. They can come has roof, gutter or trunk or mag-mount configurations. Some have a more or less permanent base and an easy twist off antenna portion (like K40 antennas).
