How to mount a mobile antenna on a scooter!

We often get asked for advice on how to mount mobile antennas especially when they need a ground plane.

It was great to hear from our friend David SV0SGS www.qrz.com/db/sv0sgs

 

“I finally managed to find a good ground connection on my motor scooter. So, now I am mobile!"

"My 11m (CB) and 40m (Ampro) antennas both work well. I am pleasantly surprised at the bandwidth on the 40m Ampro antenna. I had good reception (only) on the 10m band using the CB antenna (not Ampro). Lately I have been using an EFHW antenna for 10m portable work. I am now inspired to buy an Ampro 10m antenna. The setup is much easier, as you can see from the pictures.”

“I went out just before dark to try out the antennas. I will take some more in real daylight conditions and with some pretty background. I live on a small Greek island in the middle of Aegean Sea.”

 

Thanks for the message David. We loved hearing from you.

Please send us some more pictures when you can.
