Is it necessary to purchase a separate antenna to go with a Cobra CB radio?

Question:
Wal-Mart just sells one CB radio, the Cobra ($35) and it doesn't look like it comes with an antenna.

Does anyone own a car stereo with built in memory?


I'm assuming that means I'd need to purchase an antenna separately?

Are there any CB radios that come with a built-in antenna?
If I do need to buy one separately, what is a cheap one you would recommend for a car (not a truck), and where would I get it? Thanks.

Sound system cost?


For a vehicle..car OR truck...depends on what you want to do with this antenna and CB. Do you want the CB in there mounted for good? do you want to mount the antenna there for good? There are different types of mounts for CBs and antennas. Permanent and semi-perminant. I have my CB permantly mounted in my truck, and i'm going to use a magnetic-mount antenna so i can take it on and off when i use the CB or not.
