[South Florida DX Association] Plastic Car

[Warren Rothberg]

Thanks to all for their suggestions. But...I coulda had a V-8! A half wave 
antenna doesn't NEED a ground. I can drill a hole in the trunk, put a 12" 
"washer" under there and I should be good to go!

I'm down to one car and have been for a couple of years. The car is a 
Sebring Convertible. Rag top. Trunk and engine cover are fiberglass(?). The 
only metal part of the car are the sides and there's nothing there that's 
flat. So a 2 meter magmount won't work (unless I put it on the door at 90 
degrees and work sideband <grin>).

It seems like my only option is a trunk lip mount. That would face inward 
(too many ridges outward) and sit on top of the plastic trunk. Does any one 
have any other suggestions?
