I've seen guys put an auxiliary antenna on top of the mast that plugged into their handheld in the cabin. Kind of jury rigged - but definitely out of the way when not needed. Has anybody tried this and does it really work? Jim M-17 "Spirit" On Apr 3, 2009, at 5:49 AM, Joe Murphy wrote:
My hand held radio just isn't sufficient for my location so I recently purchased a fixed mount VHF. I'm going to intall a mast antenna this weekend if this storm finally leaves the east. My question is this. Do any of you have any good ideas for the best way to mount a fixed VHF. Obviously I want to have easy access to it at the helm. I also would like to have access to it from within the cabin on occassion. Thanks for any advice. Joe Seafrog M17
