Does there need to be an electrical connection to the ground plane?

Your "rubberized shoe" will block DC current. . . . but radio waves are not DC, they are AC, and the higher the AC frequency, the more that signal will see that close by metal car body as a short to the antenna base 460+mhz is really really fast wiggling AC, it sees the base of the antenna and the car body as connected.

1:65 is fine. Even if you spend the whole afternoon testing and trimming, and get it to 1:1,.....you will never notice any difference. If it's over a 2:1, . . . that's when you start working on it.

Was that you I talked to briefly? I failed to remember the callsign, while running down I-70 I stopped by GRAFS, and almost forgot. Thanks Derek
