Post by K4SFD »

I HAVE A 2002 VW BEETLE AND AMTRYING TO OPERATE HF MOBILE 80-10 METERS. I CAN NOT SEEM TO COME UP WITH A PROPER COUNTER POISE FOR THE MOBILE ANTENNA BEING MOUNTED NEAR REAR BUMPER. SINCE THE AUTOMOBILE IS PREDOMINATELY FIBER GLASS, HAS ANYONE ACCOMPLISHED GOOD COUNTER POISE FOR HF MOBILE ON SIMILAR AUTOMOBILES?
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS.
