    Just wandering if this would be a solution to the crappy cascadia. I drive a midroof pulling flatbed, and have a headache rack. Would I be better off putting a bracket on top of my headache rack and putting my antenna there. Loads are usually no taller than 3ft on the deck. I'd be able to put a 4.5ft antenna there and be around 13'6. Any comments or suggestions much appreciated.

    Yeah I've seen those about the bird perch and skipshooter. Just wandering if this would be a better option considering I'm flatbed and have a headache rack to get the antenna well above the roofline

    Getting the antenna above the roofline would be the best option.

    If you put a 7ft SkipShooter on that headache rack, above the roof line, it will work better I'll bet,;)
