    Default Installation Pics Please?

    This is Adam,
    I am very close to getting my ft-8900r installed in my wrangler. I would like to see some pics of how you guys installed your antennas and ran your coax. Seeing these will help give me some good ideas on doing this. I will be mounting the antennas using a double mount from Arizona Rocky Road. I will be running a Diamond CR627b Tri-Band antenna (UHF Connector) and a 10 meter hamstick (3/8x24 connector). I still would like to get some good ideas that I can actually see. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Guys and Gals.

    I have two antennas mounted on a metal rack that sits over my rear mounted spare. The antenna bases are about 5 feet off the ground.
    Hard to see in the pic, but you get the idea.

    David,

    Your fuse power box with the Anderson power poles is exactly what I have been looking for. I can't read the name from the photo - what is it and where did you get it?
