I like this set up from Wiz. I have been meaning to do this on a couple other trucks of mine. Not having Nav and being to cheap to pay for Sirius, this might be an option for me.

I have some handheld FRS radios I use hunting. They work well but I want more range.

I don't want one mounted. I've had a handheld CB and a mounted one before. The mounted had better range, but not enough for me to want one in the truck. Not for the limited highway driving I do.

I bought my radio from Jason. Worked great on the SDBR. We picked up everyone and they(for better or worse) all got to hear my little one yelling for more mud. It came with the common frequencies programed.

I'm running the TYT9000 as are quite few others who have participated in our events.
Here's how I have mine mounted:
It's mounted with the supplied bracket and I used some short self drilling screws to attach it to the back wall of the center console storage compartment. When not in use I can pull the entire thing by loosening the side screws and lifting it off the mount (the stock mount is slotted) or just remove the handset & antenna cord leaving the radio in place.

You have a pic of your antenna Mark?

I can take a quick one when I get home. I just use a magnetic mount on my WSI Racerack and run the cord through the Driver's rear door (SCab) to the center console.

Thank you Chris...I did not think about legal issues...
I am still leaning towards a handheld that I can program...maybe I should just bring a couple baby monitors...
There was a thread for a group buy of handhelds. I think the non group buy price was $68 if I'm not mistaken. Programmable VHF and handheld. Nothing fancy but they work.

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure Kanakry can get you a better price than that.
