I just installed a gl2way w/cobra cb and a Sierra Electronics single am/fm/cb antenna on my '06 GL1800. My Rx distance is about 20 feet, and my Tx distance is about 75 feet. My am/fm radio reception is fine.
After the install, I initially received the CB Error message - this was rectified by installing a new battery. I double-checked all my connections, and everything seems fine. I even tried hooking a second ground wire from the frame to the antenna support/grounding strap in the trunk.
I have not hooked a SWR meter to the system (need to find adapters for my meter for use with the GW), but it Sierra Electronics tunes these antennas on a GW before shipping.
Any suggestions?
