I was looking out the window of the house this morning and noticed that my 01 EB has an antenna plug in the roof. It was originally owned by an excavating company, so I assume it had BB radio in it at one time. There are screw holes in the console also furthering this assumption.
I am thinking about putting my old dual band Alinco radio into it. Since I have been in vehicles without sufficient interior room in them for the last 10 years or so, I haven't had a radio in my truck. As we all know the Expy is extraordinarily blessed with an abundance of interior space for gadgets.
Since I have been out of the mobile radio world, I have not kept up on the advances, coming and goings, etc. of the marketplace. What is everyone using these days? I will be running a short antenna that would be just a hair longer than a 1/4 wave 2m antenna. I don't really use UHF all that much, but having the radio already, its going to be employed.
