I am joined by Gregory of Pulse / Larsen Antennas today. Join us as he discusses best practices for a mobile antenna installation. 5/8 wave? Trunk Mount or Window Mount? Find out now. Larsen Antennas for Amateur Radio: www.pulseelect...
@@HAMRADIODUDE Awesome set up. On the car it does 20m to 2m whip only. 80m n 40m whip n coil. Add 4 radials 17' long and your spike mount and you can use it in the field or base. Whip is SUPER fragile 1 fall n that's it. Joints will get loose even when left deployed and extended for a few days. Whip also collects water inside if left in the rain or dew. Best results; PUT AWAY AFTER EACH USE!!!!!
RG-400 can take your car door just fine. RG-58 is garbage in my opinion and the FAA agrees with me🙄 I've had good luck with a Tram glass mount it limits you to 50 watts. 1/2 waves don't need no ground plane if you vehicle is made from plastic like a freightliner...
