I always wondered whether a short/loaded magbase antenna on the trailer
roof (so it doesnt hit bridges etc) would work better than a mirror mount...

How much roof to bridge etc clearance is there normally?

I would have a thought a DDRR would have been good too but I read
something recently that mentioned performance has never been as good as
expected.

Thoughts?

Cheers Bob
