    Mobile Antenna ideas needed !

    I don’t recommend using an NMO mount. They aren’t as strong as a 3/8"-24 mount, and with a large 11-meter antenna, the mount could be easily ripped out if it strikes something.

    11 meter op busted very close to home

    I am local to Chicago Ridge, it's about fives away but I am not on 11 meters anymore and haven't been since 1990 so I can't say I ever heard the guy.
