I ran a Wilson Flex4 on my Rodeo with a Midland radio from radioshack. It worked great and even with the "mountains" in between me and a friend parked at homedepot, I could talk to him for a good 5 miles before it started breaking up and after 6 miles I couldn't talk to him anymore. I thought it worked great for my trail communication, and was cheap too lol. All my SWR's were just under 1.5. Your install looks good, I mounted mine in the "map" pocket at the bottom of the dash, I also had a marine PA speaker under the hood hooked up to it, now that was fun sitting in the parking lot at work talking to my coworkers when they didn't know where it was coming from haha
I used a generic mirror mount and mounted it to my spare tire carrier
I'm probably going to use the same setup on the VX, just need to figure out where to mount the antenna. I'm not a big fan of the front mounted ones but they work good. I like that mount Tonka used, anyone know where he got it?
