When I take my 2011 Ford Focus through the car wash, I put the mag-mount VHF antenna inside the car but it is still connected to the radio. I have no problem picking up the usual 2- and 3/4- meter repeaters that way. So much for the "Faraday Cage". :) 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane Elecraft K2/100 s/n 5402 >From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
