[QUOTE="All The Way, post: 940759, member: 2481"] Unless you're using a dipole or beam type antenna, you will need some kind of ground plane. Whether it be the vehicle or radials at the base of the antenna. You don't need to drill a new hole. Just keep that in mind for the future. I have mine mounted on the bed rail... I'm always using mine so a higher mounting location would end a lot of antennas in the city. I know its a compromise but it still performs well. [/QUOTE]
