[Antennas] need mobile antenna help...

[Rob Matherly]

Hi all;

On my truck, there is a hole in the fender where someone used to have an
external AM antenna (the regular antenna is in the windshield).  I'm
going to be installing a 2m rig soon, and would like to mount the
antenna in this hole.

Can anyone suggest a good antenna for this purpose?  Maybe suggest a
mount I could use?  I've been told that I need to keep the antenna short
if I want to do this type of installation.  Is that correct?

TIA
