I qso'ed with you on the 146.91 machine this week as you were heading thru Willmar on the way to Tyler I believe. I was always able to pass the coax of my roof mounted magnetic 2m antenna thru the seal of the hatchback or trunk without trouble with leaking. A BNC end to fit the hand held radio and your signal will rock by comparison.
Thank you, Mike, for the 2m antenna info!! I will give it a try!! Looking forward to meeting you face to face. i would like to join the club. Am traveling, often, between Tyler and Otsego. 73’蝉 Richard Klingler KF0LKG
