I have a cobra 75 installed with a 4' firestik.
Everything is connected and tight ( no locktite). My signal strength is at 3-6 is this normal?
Is there something I can or should do to get better signal?

Can I put lock tite on my CB stud or will it himder the signal.
It is mounted to my bumper and isn't staying tight?

Does the threaded (connection) end of the antenna (I have a fire stick) need to touch the bottom on the mounting stud? Or is the long double female threaded bolt the connection?
I am mounting to my 1/4" thick bumper and there is a gap.
The pic show the gap i am worried about.

This is a great community Ted. Glad to see you are a part if it. It has been verry helpful to in getting my little Jeep ready for overlanding and in gearing me up. Very similar philosophy to your group. Can't wait for June!!

Any ideas on products or hacks to keep cool while sleeping in the back of the vehicle?
My wife and I prefer to sleep in the back with the seats down on an air mattress. Spring and fall are great, winter can be cold but you can always add layers.

This is what I did with mine, it was given to me by a friend who moved out of province, pretty cool.
I have given one to a friend that helped me get into overlanding in a big way and I will likely give one to an other guy who is a big part of overlanding in Canada and especially Ontario.

I think Im going with garmin glo.
There are parts of ontario and quebec that are just too far out.
My map saved me but I like the gps. Especially if I find an impassable spot; I can get back to a good starting point.

I need a gps unit for my jeep. I need to be able to download and view track files (such as gpx) not just rout info. Being able to creat my own tracks would be awsome.
I have my tracks on my phone but it doesn't get signal most places.
Any suggestions??
Anything for $200 or less?
