I'm just experimenting with it. I know its not the "proper" way but its a start. And the VR on the 68 was far from wide open. One 78 will DK around 2-3 on Ch.1 but 36 through 40 and it has Hell trying. Actually have a video of it doing this.
They were sent in for exactly that, a tune-up and...

So lately I've been having some questions come up after dealing with what I have on some rigs and wondered, If it is possible, Would it work, Should I do it, Etc...
First is, If they (OEMs) wax a couple of the cans to keep their tune, Could you possibly wax all of them instead and put some...
Compromise definitively. I'd sacrifice a little efficiency for omni directionality. And even with a hatch mount,Would still need to bond it to the body and all that.
I don't have any other option. Its either bond through the rack to keep lines short to the roof or mag mount. Its a 2012 Escape. You'll see what I'm talking about then.
