It comes with the antennas just as shown. It comes with 2 antennas one for the attic or place it outside and the one on the base unit. It also has an electrical cord and a 50 foot data wire to run from the base unit to the distant antenna.

The mounting bracket that the antenna screws into needs to be GROUNDED..to the vehicle if not clamped to metal on the vehicle. Your answer is YES, you need a good ground on the bracket or mount that the antenna screws into! Hope this helps..Paul

No, the post (shown on this picture) is not included, and you need to get coaxial cable (also shown on the picture).So you only are getting the main antenna unit, anything else you need you have to buy separately.

if it come with a mount then it has almost everything, you will also need a coax cable to go from the antenna to your TV, strongly suggest RG6 cable. I would also suggest a grounding block for the coax. So you can ground the wire, outdoor antennas, pick up static electricity from the air like satellite dishes do and they can jack with the picture. This antenna is Very easy to put together, do not mount it to the roof tho, put to on the faishaboard or on the side of a chimney. screwing it into the roof will just make holes for water to come in and ruin your ceilings.

If it is the right one for your car it should have every thing you need. The brackets go into the roof rails with included bolts and the brackets are attached to the cross bars. At least that was the case with mine. It said no directions included, but they were.

It does come with the mounting bracket. But if you check the reviews, if you are buying this cb, you are better off buying a brick and mounting it, you will get more use from it.

No, it was not included in what I got. Mine is installed on an RV. If you are installing it on an RV, the opening in the roof depends upon what batwing antenna you have now. The unit pictured would not cover the hole on my unit. I bought a piece of sheet aluminum to mount to the roof and cut the hole size needed and in the location needed. Watch for inside interferences if this is for an RV.

Yes, ours came with everything to mount it to your RV including coax cable but you can also order just the antenna head or reciever with nothing else.

The one that comes with the unit would be ok for the car. The cb is good for up to 4 miles depending on the atmosphere for the day and the terrain that you're in. You will need to crack your window or run the cable between the door and exterior of the car. Another option for more info is to call a local cb shop and see if they would recommend another/different antenna.

I thought it was an easy install because we had an existing old antenna. We had it up on the roof in no time. Just follow the pictures for putting it together. Go to: http://www.tvfool.com/ to find the directions you'll need to point the antenna for your favorite channels. I live in the mountains with lots of trees and I get lots of channels.

I ordered the same thing last fall and it was the antenna with the mount (price a little over $100 if I remember right). I did not use the mount as it was a replacement for a roof mounted antenna that was already in place. We have been very please with the reception.

It came with a small connector, but nothing to bring into the house. This antenna was not very good, could not bring in basic channels, we live in a small town valley in Maine. We have always has really good reception with Radio Shack but was trying to save money, so turned around and bought another one at Radio Shack.

Ah, crap I'm too late and the answer is gone...um... so does it include it's own cable and what kind will I need? I'm looking at this "RG6 Premium Solid Copper Quad-shield Coaxial Cable" does anyone know if that's the right kind for this antenna?

I used a 20ft 3 pole mast, so I did not need to attach anything to the roof. Sorry I could not be of more assistance. I would guess you need some sort of a tripod secured to the roof. The channel master rotor attached to the tripod then use the super mast secured to the rotor and then secure the antenna to the top of the super mast pole. I think this might work.

The antenna is a small light weight antenna and doesn't take much to mount. In my case, I purchased a roof mount tripod and it serves the purpose very well. The antenna is made so that it is easy to adapt, you can use a gable or chimney mount, if your in an apartment, they make a clamp on mount for the handrail on your deck and so on. As for the best way, on top of your roof up high enough to clear other buildings will give you best range. Now you didn't say which antenna you have, if you have the "rubber duckie" that plugs into the back of the unit, I had mine sitting on a shelf in my den and it covered my whole property no problem.

Wire not included. I found this antenna to be as useful as a piece of wire, i.e. not at all. Perhaps if you live in a densely populated urban area it might work, but then you would not need it anyway.
