If Cobra can do this with a CB...

Chris....if the faceplate detaches, you can remote mount the radio....Just use CAT5 cable between the body and head of the radio.

It doesn't... thats the problem.

Ugh. Mount it somewhere.

You could try a RAM mount, as they will allow you to mount it most anywhere. I saw in your thread that the original install you had shook a bit, and you didn't like that. Your mount will shake a little, not much can be done about it.

Alternatively, I believe you do have a center console in your jeep, yes? If so, another place to mount it. It you don't have one, and the shifter isn't in the way, make a center console to mount it in :)

There was also this one:



Kinda cool, but at the same time when you grabbed the mic, inevitably you hit SOMETHING.

I remember one like that a few years ago the size and roughly the shape of a potato we naturally called the potato mic. I can't see the back of that one so maybe not so bad as the potato mic that had buttons all over so you couldn't pick it up without messing something up, one royal PITA.

One word about CAT 5 cable, CAT 6 is much better having each twisted pair individually shielded. Then there's W6MI with his CAT ? avatar. (;->)

Usually the vehicle in front of you.

With all the buttons on it, you could do cat6 or cat7 scan.
But yes, this is the ones with buttons on both sides and top and side.

A regular knob turners paradise in hand.

[kb2vxa]

Ah yes, a CAT scan! Button, button, who's got the button? Now why didn't I think of that? Knob Turners, offspring of Ted Turner I suppose, and don't forget the PA Dutch country where you'll find Paradise, Bird In Hand, Intercourse and Blue Ball too!

I tried that. I stuck 8 aspirin in my Roadtalker 40, and all I got was a headache, which is all I get when I listen to 11 M.

everyone knows when you use pills you need at least 32 pills to drop the maul.

Us old guys don't like to go to the maul.
