[QUOTE="JerryD, post: 458337, member: 17662"] [USER=20872]@Amok[/USER] & [USER=24042]@Dirty Dog[/USER] I think those are two (3, including the hood) of the best locations. My windshield pillar lights prevent mounting it in that spot, and I used to have a ham antenna on the hood lip. Had very good reception and SWR, but branches did a number on it. I have limb risers that may ameliorate that now, but having the GMRS antenna high in the back gives me great rx/tx, and low SWR. But it's a good thing it's spring mounted, because last ride I went on, branches were whacking it left and right. Everything is a compromise 😊 [/QUOTE]
