@lurch
Can you share the specs. for the magnetic antenna setup for the hand held radio you are using?
I use Nagoya UT-72, 20 inch PL-259 with SMA adaptor for BTECH and BaoFeng hand held Ham Radios Amazon $34.89 Also have a second one for my GMRS Radio , too Nagoya UT-72G.
No complaints with this setup and easily moved from one vehicle to another. Strong signal, place high on roof or front hood, where I have mine mounted.
Run antenna cable through firewall or out through door/jam, over hood.

Not likely to be ready. I'm now a maybe.
I’m still interested in meeting. Since my resto-mod ‘69 FJ40 isn’t running right now, I’ll be my all original, stock 1979 FJ40 on 30’s. If you guys are going to do an easier trail that my old girl can handle, please let me know.
