New to CB radio. CB RF loud static when all the way up.

{"text":"So I have a 29 Cobra Classic, once I got put in a new truck I hear constant loud static when the RF gain is to the max. Is there anyway to make it so I don't get that static anymore when I put the gain all the way up? New antennas perhaps? I'm in a Volvo VNL760. I know the box deal inside the mirrors isn't the best but I can't really mess with the wiring since I'm only a company driver.

Mic gain from the one to three. As for antenna, make sure your swr is as low as possible. Fine tune the antenna length by switching between channels 1 and 40. When swr reads the same on both, your whip is calibrated. ","replyToPid":0}
