Mobile setup options
Quote from tfrazier on April 4, 2025, 3:12 pmHeard you guys talking about mobile setups and antennas this morning on the N0NWS.
The first video I currently have the parts for but I need to "reform" the antenna mount to fit my car a bit. This is cool because it enables the ALFA antenna to be mounted and keeps the antenna cable short to prohibit too much loss.

I couldnt find the other video of a mobile setup. It consisted of a very low profile 3d printed case that encased a solar panel and antenna mount. It was mounted with a magnents. This was strictly solar and had no cables running from roof. pretty slick setup.
