I looked through some of your Photobucket photos and noticed that you have an antenna on your ladder. Is that a CB antenna? I have been trying to figure out where to mount a ham radio antenna, which is about the same size as your antenna. I would use the ladder, but it's such a long way to run coax to the cab. A friend mounted a through-the-glass antenna on his windshield and he says it works well.
Antenna is a CB radio. I ran a 25 foot RF cable under the coach and found a hole in the fire wall under the steering column. I just using the meter for myself not to let the batteries go under the 12.42 V or 80%. thats just for me.
