Well, right now I am using a standard 102" whip. I am still in a testing phase. I have had some problems using a coupler in the Dakota. With the current setup though, the FC-40/FT-857 was receiving almost as good as my FT-847 on a 60' long wire with a SGC-230. I have a Houston trip (driving) coming up and hopefully will have more information during and after that. I am thinking of replacing the 102" whip with something a little longer, maybe in the 12' range. I will definitely update everyone on how it goes.
Thanks,
Mike

Nice install Mike,
Are you using a regular 102 inch whip? What kind of luck are you
having?
