This is usually the case. It is easy for a CB to receive but throws a lot of power to transmit. Usually if you have a bad ground you can only transmit short distance. The problem is likely your buddy's setup.

I bought one from amazon for 20 bux and the 3' jumper cable for 10, but I could probably get the cable cheaper at radio shack. I ended up with mine in the red when I keyed the mic. I am still playing with it, but it looks like I messed up the UHF connector on the far end, the when I tried to replace it, radio shack gave me the wrong connector. I stripped the coax and pushed the bare lead into the swr meter and it was in below 3 so I know I am setup right, just need the correct connector. I went by tonight and I think I got the right one this time, after putting what the recommended back again, and getting what I thought would actually work....
