President Bill CB with Firestik Antenna Installation

We needed a new CB for the jeepfan.com 2018 Wrangler Unlimited JL and due to such limited space we were looking for a compact CB that has the essential features. In addition to the CB we chose a Firestik 4′ Antenna and Firering cable.

CB Radio

After checking out some CB options from Right Channel Radios we discovered a CB that we haven’t seen before. President is a brand of CB that has been around since 1978 and they have a model called the “Bill” that is very small but has many essential features.

Antenna

We have used Firestik antennas on many of the past jeepfan.com Jeeps, it make sense to continue using these great products. The 4′ antenna is a good size for a Wrangler along with an added spring to allow movement through the trees. In addition to the antenna we are using a Firestik Firering cable with an FME connector. The FME connector allows the cable to be fed through small spaces.
