Pros:
- Very strong magnet attaches firmly to the vehicle
- Narrow whip poses little wind resistance (see importance in the text below)
Cons:
- Nothing compares to the 102" whip (any junk CB station will sound like the most expensive electronics work of art with a 102" antenna, but a whip of this length is not feasible on a regular passenger car).
This antenna is reasonably long for a four-wheeler (passenger car), and still not too long for low ceiling garages and similar spaces.
The truck drivers have been my best friends from the moment I realized how helpful they can be on the CB radio waves and nowadays mainly for security reasons I refuse to drive on a highway without a CB station. I have a number of them and a number of magnet mount antennas.One of them was almost as long/high as this one, but was wider and had a weaker magnet, so one very windy day while I was driving quite fast on the highway the wind blew it off my roof (and kept me wondering for 10 seconds how on earth it can hail on a sunny day, till I stopped and saw that the antenna was hanging by the wire and flipping left and right across the roof of my car).After that experience I used a much shorter, about 10" antenna which can never be blown away, but its reception and transmission abilities are pitiful.Little Wil antenna has the best value for me because of its combination of length, magnet strength and narrow profile for low wind resistance, and its thin and very flexible whip can get through even lowest garages.

Product Description:
Why the Wilson "Little Wil" Performs Better The "Little Wil" uses Wilson's exclusive low loss coil design and is patterned after the proven performance of the Wilson 1000 and 500. The "Little Wil" out performs all similar types of small base loaded antennas. It was designed specifically for users who want a high performance antenna with a short whip, at a low price. The Wilson tradition of designing an antenna that offers maximum efficiency for the cost is continued with the "Little Wil". The Large 10 oz. Magnet used in the "Little Wil" is the first indication of the attention to detail, engineering, quality and design that makes the antenna perform so well. The strength and holding power of the larger magnet will prove itself the first time extra speed is needed to pass the auto ahead, or on those rough and bumpy roads. The "Little Wil" hangs on long after other small antennas have fallen off and become lost and wasted money. Wilson uses 14 gauge wire to provide the maximum power handling for a small antenna. When combined with Wilson's exclusive coil winding method that allows air to flow completely around the wire, its maximum power handling is approximately 300 watts. With it's total height of only 38", when mounted on the trunk lid of most automobiles, you can safely drive into your garage without damaging the antenna or the car from the overhead door. When driving into those multi-level parking garages, at the office or shopping center, you no longer must remove the antenna. If your looking for a low cost, high quality antenna with a low profile design, the "Little Wil" is your solution.
