Do you have a pic , close up on the face and one wide angleish on the base?
what model antenna? Comet#?

Thanks,

Here's the link to Icom with PDF brochure: http://www.icomamerica.com/products/amateur/208h/


The antenna is a Comet SBB2...jury's still out on the mount and antenna; I may end up going with a longer/taller antenna and installing magnet mount on the roof with zip tie to rack crossbar...but I'm going to use it for awhile to see if it will work OK as is.

Not sure what you mean by anglish on the base; I'll take some more pics tomorrow and post up. FYI: I just welded up angle iron at the top (that I screwed into my AO drawer frame) with 2 straight 'struts' welded onto the angle that the factory 208H unit bolts to.
