The higher the proportion of antenna length that is above the roof, the better.

2. If possible, mount the antenna in the center of whatever surface you

choose.

3. Keep antenna cables away from noise sources, such as the ignition

system, gauges, etc.

4. Make sure you have a solid metal - to - metal ground.
