	Howstuffworks "How does a CB radio antenna work?"
		A citizens band (CB) radio antenna is a device designed to do two things: It captures radio-frequency signals that are then converted to electrical signals by the receiver, and it takes electrical signals from the transmitter and converts them into radio-frequency signals.
		The CB portion of the spectrum begins at 25.01 megahertz, so a full wavelength antenna would be a bit more than 39.34 feet long.
		In the case of CB, the 1/4 antenna at just under 10 feet long is the common "whip" that you may see on cars and trucks.
