    There's a couple of frequencies that I leave mine on. 146.460 is one and the other I would have to check when i have the radio nearby.
    I had @Iggy. program mine and I believe he got some of the program list from @EDDO as well as some he already had. @jAndyMendo knows a lot about this as well. He converted me after using his handhelds at Slickrock
    Any of those guys would definitely be able to answer any questions, since I'm a noob. :anonymous:

    this might help

    http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/165894-Region-HAM-Repeater-Digest-Repository-Directory

    146.460 is the normal offroad group, but there can be other with it, so can change. 146.520 is the general freq when just rolling around. Few repeaters in the south bay with activity.

    Speaking of which, I need to install my HAM right now, I'm just being super lazy. Got my bed supports installed, care of the great Mr. @Bentrodder , now I'm just waffling around. My excuse? I don't have anything to big enough for an NMO connection to install the antenna in the back.

    they make hood clips. ButI think you have a glass hood. You have glass fenders so no go there. Your bumper is a hybrid or you could drill the corner. The cb tailgate may work if you can get someone to make a bigger one for you.

    Can also change our the nmo to

    Do not have a glass hood, and I would prefer to have it in the bed somewhere. I might be able to drill out one of Jerry's mounts off the tailgate. Can you recommend a good ground strap to throw on since I won't be mounting to frame really..

    hmmm. your radio isnt grounded because you are using a handheld. I have no strap recommendation, I would just call the ham radio outlet guys and ask.
