I just bought a boat that had been equipped with Loran, VHF, and Citizen's
Band (CB). The former owner kept the CB. So I now have 3 antennas, and 2
things to hook them up to.

The question is, can I hook the VHF up to what had been used as the CB
antenna? They're both white plastic whip antennas, and I have no idea
whether they're electronically different in any way or not.

Radio experts? Thanks...

That seems to be where these 22 year old posts come from
Over on the home repair group the homeowner web seems to be famous for
it.

I have a uniden CB radio (new) and have an existing larsen wb vhf radio already on my truck. Will this antenna work with my new radio.
