Cool build.
Yeah. From the research I have done that was my impression. When I go HF I'll be keeping that at home. I look forward to having mobile 2m capabilities. I banked all 2m/70cm repeaters within 40 miles from home. Truck is ready when I am!
Thank you. I like the sense of helpful and friendly people. Never really witnessed such a positive and welcoming group.
Welcome to the insanity called HAM Radio ! I have gone full circle with the mobile stuff. I had a mobile HF station for a while, I had a FT-857D with matching motorized antenna. Made quite a few overseas contacts while mobile. I no longer even bother with a mobile radio. I use a HT on a RAM mount with a window clip on antenna. 90% of the time I dont even bother with local stuff and use a DMR Hotspot connected to my phone for internet and I always have someone to talk to. Check out my YouTube channel, just search for W1MSG Ham Radio. Its all about using Hot spots.

Farmallboy, ROTF LMBO! 6 years out of college, try 30, bhahahahahahaha, time goes in a blink! Always have been interested in radio, maybe the IT guy in me. Thanks to all. I found the clutch plate. AFMoulton, where did you find the hot line inside the cab?
Back to the RAM forum for just a minute, LOL. I have a 2014 1500 Crew without the full center console. Anyone have any convenient places to mount a radio? I have been staring at the inside of my cab for days now and the thought of drilling anything brings a tear...appreciate it...
I'll be checking that out. I like working with pi's. Dmr is my next avenue. I'm researching radios now

You guys are really teasing me! I have been off the air for quite some time, but you folks are stirring the juices. First HF rig was a Collins. I loved that radio and in the winter could even supplement the heat in my small apartment when it was completely warmed up and running.
I remember when packet was new and the rage on 2 meters. I used a Tandy , I think it was an LT 1400 or something like that. Do you still do packet ?
I did do HF in a truck I had back then. Contacts all around the world were made. ICOM 735 for that. Doubt if I would try HF mobile today but all this talk is making me think I need to dig out the 2M stuff and install in the RAM.
I went to MSGRetired you tube. Uh, man am I outdated! I can't even talk the language. Pi-Star, BM Hotspot, Brandmeister API , HUH???
Welcome to the new guy. People in Amateur radio will be friendly and helpful.
I have a Anytone Dual Band HT. Cheap DMR with 2m and 70cm. Does analog and DMR.
