Hamsexy – California Style!

The green Ford features 5 antennas in addition to the standard broadcast antenna. Three are mounted in the rusty roof, one  in the center, and the other two off to the sides towards the back. On the rear window, on each side are some sort of glass mount units. The whips on these are just inches away from the roof mounted antennas. Also, be sure to note the amber lightbar, junk on the dashboard, crack that extends across the windshield, and best of all the license plate.

 This mag mount is ready for some heavy duty work, but all is not well. Apparently, it needed a better ground. That’s what the “monster cable” speaker wire wrapped around the mount and leading foreward is for. It ends at a 1/4″ Allen head bolt the passes through the roof of this otherwise normal car. I guess it’s no good to drill a hole to mount an antenna, but it’s OK to make a hole for a ground wire to be bolted to the roof.

 And finally, the white Hyundai. I think the antenna is longer than the car is, and this is without the whip that was inside the car (no pix per the rules here). I think there were 8 magnets on this mount. If the big HF antenna was not enough there are the other 3 mag mounts placed randomally on the car’s roof. Who knows what the setup o nthe side of the car is for….
