<p>[QUOTE="BigJim63, post: 3997004, member: 143002"]I am using a 102 inch whip on the door/mirror bolt mount. Had a little trouble with high swr until I put a 3ft piece of rubber hose on the antenna and raised it up with the Wilson 5 in shaft. It isn't too tall and I have had good reports on how my setup sounds. I also have a tarp strap with one hook removed and slid the open end down on the whip and the hook end hooked to the roof air dam bracket. (daycab) I also have a length of heavy string attached to the fender mirror support and the whip to keep it from banging into the air dam and it is fairly straight up at 65 mph. It is probably a bit directional but it works.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
