    Pickup truck mounting

    The big deal with that truck roof is the amount of flex. They formed ribs to the metal up there but you can actually push it easily a half inch or more. I noticed that right away when washing the vehicle. Even if there were a solid 7" backer I'm sure it would have still flexed. I just didn't...

    Reflector

    What might be meant by someone telling me I'm on the reflector? This ch 19 yakkin. I'm thinking he meant repeater. Could/would this have anything to do with using an amp? Radio is a DX99V.

    Pickup truck mounting

    The 'drill a hole in the roof' was a great idea. Swr 1.1 and 1.2 after install. A lot of work but everything is good.

    Pickup truck mounting

    Wait. I found a guy local and he's got a Wilson 1000 roof mount. I'm going tomorrow to pick it up. Took a bunch of the interior apart today. Finally gonna power this thing up and see what it is. I'd hate to think I'm going to buy some new fancy pants rig now that I've gone and looked at so...
