I used a Sanyo ECD-HD1990M Car stereo reciever for these tests. I chose Sanyo, because of their history of making good analog radio receivers with excellent selectivity and sensitivity. See my “The Best Radios” for more information.
The antenna in all of these tests was placed on the top of a chevy Astro van, on the “CB MOUNT” flat spot, towards the rear of vehicle, and a braided and foil shield, high quality cable was run through the vehicle away from internal wiring to a PL259 “UHF” plug, where it was then screwed into a motorola plug adaptor and plugged into the radio.
