Different types of antennas
A pre-adjusted antenna is one that has been already set for optimal use on Citizen's Band frequencies. This prevents users from making any adjustments in order to get good transmission and reception on Citizen's Band frequencies.
Pre-adjusted antennas are usually easier to install and to use than antennas that require manual adjustment. They are also more reliable because they have been designed and tested for optimal use on the Citizen's Band. Pre-adjusted antennas are preferably used with a good ground plane (e.g. car roof or lid of the boot).
An adjustable antenna can be adjusted for optimal use on Citizen's Band frequencies.
Adjustable antennas often offer better performance the pre-adjusted. They are often used for long distance communications, as they can be adjusted to maximize transmission and reception performance on the different frequencies used for these communications. Adjustable antennas offer a much wider range of use and make it possible to take advantage of smaller ground planes.
