Originally I installed the transmitter in the cubby under the rear seat on the drivers side. I have since moved it to INSIDE the truck, between that plastic cubby, and the sheet metal surrounding it. It's now entirely hidden inside the truck. GPS Antenna on the roof. I upgraded the antenna...

Let's get the important bits out of the way. YOU MUST HAVE AN AMATEUR RADIO LICENSE FROM THE FCC (In the United States) OR FROM YOUR HOME COUNTRY TO USE ONE OF THESE. Now that's that's out of the way, I'd like to talk about the Byonics Micro-Trak RTG which is a 2m APRS Transmitter under...

Also, all mobile radio communications are about compromise. A 1/4 wave CB antenna is 8' long. This works pretty well, but it's difficult to mount on most vehicles. If you mount it high it WILL hit absolutely everything you drive under. Many 5/8wave antennas while generally providing some...

I park in a garage at work.

Yup, Unfortunately I only made it to the Texas Avid Outdoors event at the end. (two photos of my Breakfast Taco at the end of the gallery.)

That's exactly what we do in the Heart of Texas Off Road Club when Keith (W5UPQ) and I (W9ZEB) are both attending. He leads and I sweep. What you said about having a CB because most the guys you off road with don't have Ham Licenses, is the only reason I have a CB in my truck as well...
