[Scan-DC] Recommendations for mobile antenna mounts, and Hamfest tomorrow (Oct 5)

[Larry Catron]

For many years I have only used luggage rack mounts to stay away from  
holes, dents, and mag mounts.  I have been driving SUVs so this may  
not help much on a car without racks.

Here is the link for information on the fest.  It is being ran by the  
Columbia Amateur Radio Association (CARA).   Could be a good place to  
pick up some radio stuff.  I will be there looking and buying.
