I want to put my old CB into the cab of my Class C. I have a mag mount, but the hood is fiberglass along with the top. Where on earth would you put it. I see they make hood mounts, but wouldn't the...

Installed the van hood mount driver's side and hooked up the coax to radio. I have a 2ft Firestick FS and a Firestick 4ft original. Did the SWR match on the 2ft Firestick FS and got 4+ on channels 1 and 40. I switched antenna to the 4ft Firestick and got 1.7:1 on Ch 1 and 2.2:1 on Ch 40. Since the antenna is too long for the hood mount plus thin and flexible, it would not be a good choice as it would end up hitting the cabover.
I am going to order a Firestick FS 3ft which is thicker and less prone to flexing and striking the cabover. I could also order a Firestick FS 2ft which is what I already have but is producing very high SWR readings. Perhaps it needs a longer antenna because of the cabover obstruction?????
