If you can't see the video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBzENxqQA_w. Nicely done video by Eric of "Ham Radio Concepts."  Although every vehicle will be different, Eric shows us some of the common solutions to most mobile installation problems.  In this video, Eric concentrates on the installation of VHF/UHF transceivers and mobile antennas.  Please note the importance of grounding straps, proper fusing of power leads to the vehicle battery, and proper antenna placement.  Just take your time and do the installation correctly  Also be aware that some magnetic mount antennas may not work on car bodies made of aluminum and fiberglass.
