Another friend of mine, also on this List and who I thought would
answer, hid his horizontally under the rocker panel. As I remember the
reception was pretty terrible BUT you couldn't see the antenna. :-)
Maybe he'll verify that.?
I, too, have a CB antenna with a quick release on the RR bumper mount.
My fiberglass antenna doesn't whip around at speed and when removed, the
mount is hidden by the bumper. I like it that way. How many of you who
went to Conclave even noticed it?
