How do you plan on suspending a wire 108 inches long? I suppose you could park under a tree and cast a lure over a tree branch and pull the wire up with fishing line. You won't be able to drive and talk though.

Thanks for the reply. School me on the 108" if i remember the part iam missing was about 2-3 ft tall? I dont plan on driving around to test this just in my driveway parked to see if this unit works before i order a new antenna or ( both) Thanks again
