You can use a 13.8V DC power supply. If your CB is strictly stock a good 3 amp power supply will be fine. But if you do any power or modulation mods on it then go up to a 5amp power supply. The negative wire on your CB going into the power supply will serve just fine for a ground for a stock CB. If you start running any power then ground the CB again from the metal chassis to a pipe or maybe the hose faucet outside using a 10 gauge solid copper wire or copper braid strap. Many people run a mobile CB in their home. It's the same as the car accept you will run things from that power supply. If you have any further questions feel free to ask.
Please do not try and hook up any CB ground to your home electrical for safety reasons. You can buy a copper grounding rod at Home Depot which you can drive into the ground if you have any where you live. If not the cold side of a water pipe will have to do.Please do not try and hook up any CB ground to your home electrical for safety reasons.
