| | Omnidirectional CB Antenna Recalled by Shakespeare (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | The agency estimated, however, that approximately 45-50 individuals were electrocuted each year through 1981 as a result of CB antennas coming into contact with electrical power lines while the antennas are being put up or taken down. |
 | | Each of these recalled antennas bears a three letter code located on the bottom of its metal sleeve and on the identification label on the end of the packaging tube as follows: CHF, CHE, CHD, CHC, CHB, CHA, CHL, CHM. |
 | | As a normal practice, individuals planning to install or take down a CB antenna should first contact their local power company for advice. |
