My truck needs a new 2m/70cm antenna setup. Will this work?
Спорт
My truck has had a problem since the day I started using it. The antenna I have for it is a mag mount and whenever I put the truck in the garage the garage door opening isn't tall enough to allow the mag mount to stay in place. I decided to solve that problem by buying a couple of Comet items at @DARAHamvention and this video shows you how I solved the problem.

I have a lip mount on the trunk of my convertible. Used a mag mount for a long time. Cleaner looking now.

A miata. The antenna makes the car twice as tall now.
It's annoying having tall antennas at times. I have to take down the antennas at every drive thru. I have that same mount which is bolted to my back rack. Great mount.

Maybe in the future. But I was expecting to mount it to the lip of the door frame, so a lip mount I bought.

@@LifeAtTerminalVelocity I understand brother!
I have the same or similar mount on my Tacoma. I put it on the edge of the hood. More fore when I drag it through the trees and such as I don’t have a garage to worry about. Works well enough for me there. I’ve never had it on the roof to compare though so I don’t know the difference.

I might move it there later. I still have a lot of work to do under the hood of that puppy and taking off the antenna all the time to lift the hood would get to be a pain.
Comet makes a spring adapter for that antenna!

I guess I'll have to look at that in Huntsville.
