I have the ubiquitous Jeep TJ Smittybilt XRC, (I think), and there is a tow bar made for it. It is a bit laborious to attach to the bumper, but I use it to tow the Jeep behind my pickup which provides a more comfortable ride. If towing behind a motor home I would probably suggest a purpose...

I took a flat bracket that is pictured above and then added a Larsen L bracket underneath it so the 3/4 inch holes align and the nmo will attach through both mounts. I used a nmo thick mount since it was basically going through two mounts. When I added the L mount the whole thing became stiffer...

its been a while so someone else should verify but I believe its 1/2 wavelength so about 16'

Used to run HF mobile back in the day. Had some great times on 10 meters when the band was wide open. Do not use now however. Have fun.

See the photos above. It is a dual band antenna which I believe is a 1/2 wave on 2 meters and it works well on the fender mount.

Unfortunately I’m a dinosaur for most newer modes. I have a tj and a Ram truck and the TM-281 front mounted speaker was the main selling point, along with being mil spec. Bought both of mine new. I would love to pick up two more for my work van and my Camper. Back in the day I loved working...

Correction. The radio is a TM-281

Kind of an old school setup but it’s an old school Jeep. Larsen NMO 2/70 dual band on a mashup fender mount and Kenwood 2 meter radio, (TN241). The antenna mounting location is popular for Jeeps, and this antenna is popular for people mounting in this location due to ground plane...

I really need to get out of last century and get digital. Sounds fun.

Sorry I wasn’t succinct enough. The mast would hold three devices ultimately, a dual band ham antenna, and a weather sensor and directional cell antenna lower on the mast.

So that antenna looks like a cellular antenna. If so, what are you using as a booster. I have ATT and most of the RV camping destinations around here sport lousy At&T service. I am looking for a setup to support Cellular, Amateur VHF/UHF, and a Weather station on my Camper. Sorry to hijack...

It is unfortunate that Torque does not have an apple version, (that I'm aware of).

Don’t have any experience with GMRS. But an amateur radio rig like this would be helpful in my Jeep. It’s tight trying to mount a 2 meter radio in a TJ

What everyone else said. I mounted a Larsen 2/70 dual band antenna to a bracket on the fender on my TJ. Works fine. Just make sure you have a good ground and you should be fine.

Panasonic makes a rugged tablet. Toughpad. Expensive. I like the ipad life proof route

You also need to look at the propagation characteristics of 10m. As said the frequency of 10 meters is very close to 11 meters, but most 11 meters is AM and most 10 meter work is done on side band, (unless things have changed over the years). I used to run 10 meter mobile quite a bit, and very...

Absolutely, everything better with bacon

2 meter quarter wave, same location works great

Let me clarify, How is the X-mount mounted to the dashboard. I have a ram tablet mount that is the suction cup, and the arm is too short to mount on the windshield, interested in how you attached it. Thanks.

How is that tablet mount, mounted in the Jeep?
