I had a 97 F150 and it was a pretty tight fit between the seat and the dash if I remember. Looks like you have the antennae set up pretty well. Should be a pretty good set up you got going.

it is a tight fit...that is why i had to set it at such a steep angle between the seat and dash...and after checking my swr's again last night...on 27.185 (19)they are down to a 1.3..and a 1.1 on 27.405 (40)...and was talking with a range of about 13 miles...

GOOD NEWS for the dual fiberglass setup haters.....i just went and bought a 102" s.s. whip...im going to experiment with it for a while...hoping to get my headache rack built in the next few weeks than ordering a 10k to replace the 102....
