Wilson CB Antenna Buying Guide
Choosing a Wilson CB radio antenna comes down to your vehicle, how you mount it and how much range you need.
Wilson 1000 vs Wilson 2000 vs Wilson 5000
The Wilson 1000 is the go-to magnet mount for cars, SUVs and pickups. The Wilson 2000 and 5000 are built for trucks: lighter fiberglass-and-steel designs that bolt to mirrors, with the 5000 offering the most range. Many drivers run a pair of 2000s or 5000s with a co-phase cable.
Little Wil & Silver Load Antennas
The Little Wil is a short magnet-mount antenna for low garages and smaller vehicles. Silver Load and FGT fiberglass antennas come in 2, 3 and 4 foot lengths and are easy to mount on toolboxes, bumpers or off-road rigs.
Wilson CB Antenna Mounts & Parts
Wilson sells magnet mounts, roof-top mounts, mirror brackets, a Freightliner Cascadia mount, stainless studs, gum drop studs and replacement whips. Match the stud thread to your antenna and use Belden coax with PL-259 connectors for the lowest loss.
Installing & Tuning a Wilson Antenna
Mount the antenna, run the coax away from engine noise, then tune SWR with a meter: check channels 1 and 40, lengthen the whip if SWR is higher on channel 1 and shorten it if it is higher on channel 40. Follow the Wilson CB antenna installation instructions for your mount.
Wilson Electronics & weBoost Cell Boosters
If you searched for a Wilson cell booster, the brand you want is weBoost (formerly Wilson Electronics). Its kits use dual-band magnet-mount or directional antennas and low-loss Wilson-400 cable to strengthen weak cell signal in vehicles and homes.
About Wilson Antennas
Wilson Antennas has been a staple at truck stops and CB shops for decades. Its lineup covers magnet-mount car antennas like the Wilson 1000 and Little Wil, trucker antennas in the T2000 and T5000 series, and the Silver Load and FGT fiberglass whips. Note that Wilson CB antennas are a different company from Wilson Electronics, the cell signal booster maker now known as weBoost — and from Wilson golf clubs such as the Wilson CB irons.

What Customers Say
I’ve been using CB radios for over 20 years, and Wilson antennas never let me down. The Wilson 5000 gives me crystal-clear reception and great range, even in remote areas. It’s built tough and handles all weather conditions like a champ. Highly recommend!
Mike R.
I was skeptical at first, but after switching to a Wilson CB antenna, the difference was night and day. My signal strength improved a lot, and I can now communicate clearly even in areas where I used to get static. Installation was simple.
Jessica T.
I use my CB radio daily for work, and I need an antenna that can keep up. The Wilson 1000 has been rock solid—great range, crystal-clear transmission, and it holds up even in tough conditions. A must-have for serious CB users!

Common Questions
The Wilson 1000 and the T5000 trucker antenna are the long-range favorites. Range depends on antenna height, a good ground plane, coax quality and SWR, so a well-installed Wilson 2000 can outperform a poorly installed 5000.
The Wilson 1000 is a magnet-mount antenna for cars and pickups with a large coil and 62.5″ whip. The 2000 and 5000 are trucker antennas; the T5000 is the larger, center-loaded model and usually gets a little more range.
Yes. Every CB antenna should be tuned with an SWR meter after installation. Wilson whips have an adjustable tip or shaft so you can raise or lower it until SWR is as low as possible across the channels.
Mirror mounts, a Freightliner Cascadia bracket, toolbox or bumper mounts all work. Get the antenna as high as practical and keep at least a few inches above the cab roof for the best signal.
No. Wilson Electronics, now weBoost, makes cell phone signal boosters. Wilson CB antennas are a separate product line; the weBoost antennas and cables on this page are listed for readers who searched for a Wilson cell booster.
Check the stud, mount and coax connections for corrosion, keep the magnet base clean so it does not scratch paint, and retune SWR if you change the mount or vehicle.
