Does Anyone Remember the tricks that were used by Federal or Tactical law enforcement vehicles in the late 60's or Early 70's ??  You wouldn't recognize their cars at all ... Unless you got Right behind them ! The Antennas were Quarterwave antennas, usually Vhf and mounted INSIDE on the rear package shelf of the Rear window !  Under the carpet on that shelf was STEEL and made a Great ground plane ! 😊

Oh cool. I've ridden a friend's Corsa... great fun. we use GMRS HTs on our group trike rides to keep track of our riders when we have 8 - 12 riders. Works great for letting multiple people in the group know about upcoming turns or hazards, and if everyone made it through the light and such. 😉

It's pretty sweet. I have an extension for my speaker wire ordered so I can swap the speaker to the left side. Headrest mount Headrest mount with included speaker

I have the Bayofungus uv5g plus as a pair and now the TD H3 pair

Very nice! I am also thinking of getting one of those and some radioddity brand units, mobiles, and handhelds!

Wow, that's impressive.  

We had one we used where I worked doing some SCADA radio work, it was Old but accurate you got a deal congratulations.

These are the SWR scans for the Comet CA-2x4MB dual band antenna I had on my old Jeep. I have a photo posted of the antenna on the Jeep. The antenna is a non-ground plane type so the luggage rack mount works just fine. So far this is the ONLY dual band antenna I've tested that works with an SWR under 2:1 on both the Ham VHF / UHF bands and the MURS / GMRS bands too. The scans were done using a RigExpert AA-1000 antenna analyzer. I wished Comet still made this model but it's been long discon

When I lived in an apartment there wasn't much for options. VHF/UHF was about it with operation through local repeaters.

Antennas for UHF are fairly simple to build. You don't need much if the antenna will be used indoors. The square loop is built for 432 MHz for the Ham 70cm band and sideband. It uses a simple hairpin type match. This was built, using some 12 Gage copper wire,  to test some simulation results. It came out reasonably close. The hairpin matching section is sort of touchy. The antenna on the right was built using a cheap BNC panel connector and some buss wire. It's a 1/4 wave ground plane
