No the radio is generally already "Grounded" BUT.. You can get "No ground plane" antennas.. I used one.
OH. on my motor home I mounted it on the "A" pillar.. I mounted with the tip about 1" higher than the highest other point on the Rig (Instant bridge stick) Worked well.
I used half a Mirror mount... (The L shaped part) the antenna mounted as normal. 4 lag bolts to the pillar (Sealed) and a hole behind the bracket (Also sealed) for the coax to exit. the one I had had a "V" shaped notch to engage the rod it was designed to clamp to.. that's how the coax exited. Worked great.
Firesticks... they make a NGP design I'm told (mine was a differenet company)
Today I don't do CB any more.
