    Where did your Jeep take You this Week?

    The Jeep Club I’m part of participated in a Veteran’s Day parade this morning. Over 50 Jeeps from more than 5 different clubs came. The pup got his first ride on the front seat with the doors off and he loved it! Thank you to all my fellow Veterans for your service!

    That just means you need an r/c Gladiator and trailer to tow your mini trail rig!

    So had a quick go at the SWR. It’s over 3 on both 1 and 40, with it being higher on 1. NOTE: I did just realize that I forgot to sand the underside of the fender where the bolt passes through. 🤦‍♂️ I’ll hit that in the morning and I’ll also have lots of help then as well since I’ll be with the...

    2x1/4 is the scrap I have on hand. I don’t know about mounting an antenna inside, but I suspect the top would still interfere. IIRC, Firestick says that tops, tennis balls and antenna flags will mess with SWR.

    Got the Cb finished today. All wired in, antenna mounted, cable ran. All that’s left is to tune the antenna. I run the antenna cable inside the windshield trim, the power lines are run through the CB Bar.

    That wonderful feeling when you are applying a vinyl sticker and you completely botch it. 🤬

    So yea, looks like I’ll just be mounting the antenna on the P/S front fender for now. I’m going to save that mount to go where the factory antenna is eventually. I’m going to sand down the area on the underside where I drill the hole on the fender and hit it with some rattle can once the antenna...

    I got the antenna mount made today. I had made one out of a small L bracket, but didn’t like how it was going to look. I have a long scrap of 1/4” by 2” steel plate. So I bent it and cut it down to size. Sadly, I don’t have an angle grinder so I had to do it with a hack saw. I’m beat for today...

    I am finishing up the install of a uniden PC78LTX. It has swr built in. I’m making a mount today for the antenna, but have heard great things about it. Check out the clubs in your area to see what they are using. SD used to use CB, but almost clubs there are switching over to GMRS. I’m in Fl...

    I got the antenna in today. I was looking at mounting it to use the stock antenna location, but I’m not 100% on if I can make that work right now. I looked at the carrier, but that’s going to be harder given it doesn’t have an area for the wire to go when it’s closed. I’m not 100% no on fender...

    A roll bar sub? Do you have a link? That sounds perfect for what I would like!

    My coax came in. I ordered the 9’ co-ax with firering and k-4a mount, but the sent me the 18’ version. That’s ok though. The 18’ comes without the radio side connector on it so I will just cut it down and put the connector on. It’s actually I bit easier this way since the 9’ comes with the...
