Re: Through The Glass Antennas said by tobicat:I think the problem would be your particular car. All of my current vehicles have all sorts of stuff embedded in the glass. --SNIP-- compasses, dimmers, thermostats and who knows what else. Please explain those electronics in glass, maybe cite an example? I've never heard of it. -- I'm tired of killing stupid people just trying to do my job and go home! |

My experience has been glass-mounts are okay on 800 MHz, marginal on UHF and lousy on VHF. -- "It's all coming down!!" - Mike Holmes |
