I finally put my 10-k antenna on after threading new co-ax to the back, bolting it onto the side of the headache rack.
Not happy with the mounting position, and I discovered today metal fatigue got the best of it, snapping off the whip.
This antenna worked great on our old Cascadia company truck.
Any really good solution for a T2000 for antenna/ mounting? I'm back to the 4ft whips either side of the cab.
To top things off - I took the radio to 'Hillbilly' at the J in Joplin, he used to be my neighbor, though I never had him work on a radio. I don't think he did much at all.
Any good techs in the Joplin - Mt.Vernon area?
Last guy to tune it was Hardwire when he was in Amarillo - maybe 4 years ago. I recall him saying the pots were getting worn and might be time to consider a new radio.
I'm a bit of a dummy when it comes to radios, I just need to have one doing flatbed, and I still think they're a good safety feature.
