Can I mount this on the roof of my garage and use my 102" whip inside of it for CB home usage?

Yes, you can get a 6 inch extension rod and that will make 108" which is perfect for an 11 meter band which is a 40 channel AM radio. Should work great..

I read about a 6" extension to use this for 11 meter. Where would I get a 6" extension? ---- TIA

I don't see why not as long as there is enough space for you to loop the wide Velcro fastener around the length of the wire. You may however lose some of the strength & therefore the roof of the top most unit may sag. If you use it to store light items, it will probably work ok.

Here is a link to the one I used. I didn't mount it on the roof, but it says you can:Lifetime 9594 Universal Mounting KitScott

I suppose you technically could with the right equipment, but it's certainly not designed for it. It's a bit heavy for mounting, and it's base is well designed for sitting on a table, desk, floor or otherwise. Hope that helped!

I suppose you could if you purchased long enough bolts but you would need to put light weight stuff on it

You should be able to. The cable is rated for that. I have the cable running on the roof in Miami Florida.

I'd go for the trunk lip mount, that's what I did. There's also a magnetic mount. The best spot to mount an antenna, especially a CB is going to be on the top of the vehicle with the biggest whip you can get. Mine is a 60 inch whip so it sticks well above the roof of the car. Some folks get those firesticks and mount them in the bed of their truck and from what I've been told they barely radiate a signal forward. I just installed and and I have found CB to be mostly useless in the city anyway, and when I have needed it on the highway it does fine. My VHF/UHF antenna is TLP/NMO mount off to the side. My cb is in the center of the trunk. I don't have problems. Hope this helps. I'd go for the trunk lip mount, that's what I did. There's also a magnetic mount.

As long as it is anchored to ceiling beams, you shouldn't have any problem using it in any room. My garage is sheet rocked, so it's just like any other room in the house. Hope that's helpful.

I would imagine the limitation has something to do with the length of the rope that comes with it. My ceiling is 9' 6" and the hoist works just fine. Worst case scenario: you may have to buy a longer rope, but I would bet the hoist works just fine in your garage, too.

Yes you can, it mounts on the roof part in front of the sunroof. use an alcohol wipe where it will stick to the roof.

I don't see why not. I mounted mine in my attic. However, they have a cheaper indoor version (Mohu Leaf) that you should try before mounting this close to your tv. Even though this is not very large, it will still be an eye sore compaired to the Leaf.

Yes. Wotks well on chimney, tri pods and as well as wall mount. Just remember you'll need 2 of these for 10' ft above roof or 2 for rotor mount.

Yes Rich, as long as the auto roof is made of STEEL. The magnet is one of the strongest holding magnets I have ever seen. And the long whip, once tuned really adds to a good Cb. Doran

yes you can mount the 99 on a tree limb, but, if you do so, you must, run a 12 gauge copper wire (strained or solid) if any coating is on the wire, peel it back 18" from the end and wrap the bare part around the bottom of the 99 antenna where normally the 2 mounting clamps go, after wraping tight, take some good, not the cheap type electrical tape and wrap around all the expose copper wire you just wrapped, make a solid wrap around at least 5 times around. where the taped ends when you cut it off from the roll, take a plastic tie wrap and put it close to the end of the tape, so later on, it can"t come un_done. now the length of the copper wire must be long enough to run down your tree to the bottom of the ground. now get you a grounding stake from lowes or home depot and close to the tree or where ever you want to put it, drive it into the ground where theres only 6" sticking up. now at the end of your 12 gauge copper wire cut back 12" of insulation and wrap the bare copper wire from the end around the grounding stake tight thats sticking out of the ground. take 2 radiator clamps 1 1/2" and tighten around and over the bare copper wire and tighten each one as you go to get as tight as possible, but don't over tighten. thats it, run your coax from the antenna along your ground wire down to about 15 feet from the bottom of the tree and let the coax swing over to the corner of your house or shed and then run it where it need to go to get to your radio. your done, also, remember on the 99 antenna, they must be as high as 36 feet to work 100%, but, the higher you get it, the better it operates on transmit and especially receive..... good luck! enjoy! daymon

No, do not mount the controller on the roof. You will need extension cables from the 10' pigtails on the panels to connect to the controller. A 50' pair of cables is available from Amazon. Instapark® CBL50-MF 12-Gauge 50-foot MC4 Solar Panel Extension Cable, UL Listed, 2-Pack

If you mount it on the upright that holds up the roof with the bolts supplied, should be no problem. I have had them six months now and they are great.
