Yes I do use both cb antennas.

Yes I do use both cb antennas.

Was wondering how you hooked them up and what the SWR is AND how are they working ?

I have to say for a 16 year old to have this nice a truck you must be a hard worker ?

Also, what is the oval under the Ranger on the side of the truck ?

I just hooked them up with a dual coax cable. The SWR is not perfect, but it's pretty good!! I couldn't tell you exactly what is was though. And to answer your question about being a hard worker...I have a full time job in the summer at a diesel repair shop and part time during the school year! :thumbsup:

The oval under the ranger on the side of the truck is a "Team Realtree" emblem

If you decide to check the SWR or to tune the antennas, use a piece of standard 50 ohm coax not the co-phased harness, tune each antenna for low SWR then add the co-phased harness.
You won't be able to tune with the two antenna harness so you have to do it one at a time. LUCK

Actually it was an observation, you don't get a good looking truck like that with accessories without being a hard worker.
Good for you, keep it up the rewards far out weigh the alternative.

I am not familiar with it, what is "Team Realtree" ?

Keep up the good work.

Keep up the good work.

I bought a SWR tuner with the cb. I already tuned them each individually with the SWR meter. I have them as good as they are going to get right now. I have the tunable tips all the way extended. Team realtree is a brand of camo by the way! :yes:
