Hey, any ham operators on this board? Anyone install any radios in their Outbacks?
I have a Yaesu FT-7100 dual bander installed under the driver's seat, with the head mounted above the ashtray. I'm using a Larsen on-glass antenna that works OK, but I'd like to find a better 2M/70cmm antenna solution. I don't want to drill a roof mount, besides not wanting to block the roof rack. The rear hatch doesn't seem to have a good place for a lip mount.
With the power wires run direct to the battery I haven't had any noise problems, even AM airband is clean.
Cheers,
Rob
