Company assigned me a Frt Cascadia. Help.

I don't have time to get into details right now, but do a little search using "cascadia" and you will find a bunch of info on here.

 

I run a bird purch , it replaces one of the mirror bolts on the drivers door. Run cable in at door hinge nd up behind door post trim, and over to the cb.

 

Did the same with a Wilson top loaded antenna.

 

Freightliner makes a plate that fastens to the dash to mount a radio on. I'd rather have one on the dash as overhead myself. If you can't mount a plate, use velcro. I've also seen guys get creative with a piece of plywood and bungie cords.

 

Sometimes it is easier to get forgiveness than permission!

 

Velcro is, in my experience, more than sufficent if the surface is prepped properly (alcohol wipes on both surfaces to have velcro applied to, continue to clean until no more dirt comes off). Craft stores sell "industrial" strength velcro that is probably 1 and a half times to two times better at holding and sticking than the truck stop stuff from.my observations.
