some type of side mount.

Subject: Re: [BLIND-HAMS] antenna building


Yes, I know, I sound like a trader.  My wife and I just got a 32 foot motor
home.  I might be wrong but I think CB is going to be better for finding a
place to park and good food in a new area.  At least I don't hear any
conversation about that topic on my H.T.  It has bin about 30 years since I
had a CB and I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a good antenna for
a motor home.  By now, the controversy about the best kind and location
should be solved and I shouldn't have to learn by error all over again.
Thanks for any help.  I'll still keep my THF6a with us as we travel.
