    Goes in the shelf just above your head on the right. You will see the antenna cable in there.

    I was always suspicious of the day crew and how they had favorites. The night guys were usually guileless so I’d call up them up to get loads. I always got much better miles that way rather than waiting for crumbs from the day crew.

    I drop in Seattle and get a cherry 1,600 mile load out from the night guys. My asset manager was a guy who was in a wheelchair and had been there for 15 years. The next day he tells me to immediately Tcall the cherry load and take some 300 mile nonsense instead. No issues with timing on the pickup or drop- no legitimate reason to Tcall it other than him wanting to flip it to one of his “buddy” drivers.

    I tell him I’ll Tcall it but that we’re done and that I wanted a new asset manager. He gives me some nonsense about how it has to go through a committee and will take a week and I should do the 300 mile nonsense in the meantime.

    Told him the truck wouldn’t move until I got a new A.M. . Then spoke to a manager and explained the situation. He immediately got me a different A.M. and the wheelchair guy was fired the next week.

    Yep, I can see the power cable there...too bad yours wont fit. Mine came with a cobra 29 so I didnt have to worry about it. Maybe you can take that center shelf out....

    Oh peoplenet I like you better than Qualcomm but seems like you break more. Currently since yesterday I have been running paper logs because after getting put into this 2020 shaker elogs hasn't worked. So I asked the shop in New Kingstown to look at it. They tried but couldn't fix it and now I can't even login to the thing
