Read some here....best website for mobile installations....www.k0bg.com Covers all areas, safety wiring, antennas, HF V-UHF, good luck!

Yes

I've used a Eagle One vertical several time remote it easy to put up/ take down. Store compact and with a tuner works all bands. Very strong could be used as a support for a NVIS inverted V also. Stores easily in a head sided rife case

Looks good! Keep us posted as the build progresses.....these are great trailers with almost all military trailer mods being possible.

This has some momentum ....without Ham Support it may die! . Everyone should read the ARRL info about this bill. I have contacted my congressman in support of the bill. If anyone wants to do so please go thru the ARRL as mailings now to congress go to a clearing house for security and take...

These trailers are under used, extremely well built. Most negatives are weight and size? I never drive areas they won't go? If I was traveling cross country in a non road area the size might be an issue but as a beach hauler they are great. Granted cross country roadless areas the size could be...

Mag mount Wilson 1000 cheap, works well, can be taken off easy....or drill the hole and mount a Wilson 1-5000 in the roof. ...radio antennas all need similar grounding etc. check out K0BG.COM might be overkill but you'll get some good ideas on mounting schemes. Good luck

Read thru K0BG website.....then again. The site is an encyclopedia on mobile installs. Run into a specific issue email Alan or post it on the mobile forum on QRZ he hangs out around that forum a lot. As stated before this site is near vain for mobile op guys. Bonding is something I can speak to...

RagnarD that is my plan....bracket welded under at corners and extended out or a plate bolted on the sides and weld to them. Wanting the ladder on the front curbside....thought it would be safer if access is needed on the road? If I could find or make some bracket like the anti tilt legs...

The bolt and weight plate lock is a great idea.....next garage sale I'll have this made as a lock.....thieves are everywhere, most don't work so they have unlimited time to look for a fast buck or something to steal!

I've planned an over the top rack....the only steel welding points are the plates and attachment points at the lifting rings on the four corners. My plan is to use these as the attachment or welding areas for my top. They are limited. Using steel tubing rather than aluminum presents issues, the...

Love to see what you've done?.... you guys post pictures of your mods to this trailer?? These are being the normal GSA sellers now....great place for a mod to start

Great build....wondering if you know who makes the top....anymore where that came from??

Give 10 meters a try.....listen around its open most days to somewhere. If you don't hear anyone give a few calls....might be happy with the results

Thanks for the link.....I'm close but y'all are right the price is high. That being said they have huge potential. I saw also a drop in shelter/communication shelter made for these.....similar to the drop in com shelters designed for the 3/4 ton pickups? It also would be a great start to rehab...
