I do as well but...

I would advise AGAINST using APP's in a mobile installation.  Why?  They
are not as positive locking as compared to other connector configurations
and in a mobile installation you have shock and vibration to deal with (Not
so at the shack/in the field).  If you feel you must go that route be very
sure that you...

1.  use super glue to adhere the two sides together  (do not use the roll
pins that come with them)
2.  Use one of the connector locks that you can get from west mountain
radio et.al. to keep both sides held together so they wont
shake/rattle/roll apart.

YMMV
