    That is now my backup and loaner. Works reasonably well with a Little Wilson mag mount antenna.

    I'm in Benicia. PM me if you want to come check it out. I love the idea of the sprinter van, but would hate to lose the ability to wheel. The Flippac is a great 3- season unit. Winter is challenging, but doable.

    Thanks for the info. It didn't work very well today, but I was at the back of the pack. I'm planning to put a 4' Firestick on a ditch light bracket, or a 2' Firestick on the roof rack. I want to go with the bed mount bracket, but the antenna would smack into the vertical corners of the camper. Also plan to get the remote mic/ speaker. If that doesn't work, it will be my backup/ loaner too.

    Remote mic/speaker is a nice addition to it. In case you were looking for an alternative and don't mind doing a little soldering on a circuit board (and immediately voiding warranty in the process) this is what I'm using now, still with the mag-mount wilson. http://amzn.com/B0140QP3VU

    I went with the midland hend held cb and added a 3' wilson tunable antenna on a BAMF mount. Itll plug into the cig lighter or can you put on the battery pack for use outside of vehicle. Seemed to work well during the xmas tree run. I was last in line and could communicate with the leader of the group, which was 30somethin trucks.
