Mobil communications

Hi, is anyone using a communication system in their LR2?
if so how/where have you got the unit mounted and where have you
mounted the antenna? I need some ideas for installing my comms for response use,
Thanks in advance

I'm half way through the installation of three mobile radios: low band, VHF, and UHF. Two are Tait and one is a Motorola. I don't have navigation so I'll probably mount the heads somehow there.

I have the LR supplied unde-seat mounts in place for the radio bodies, next up are the antennas. I'm using MNO mounts through the roof. They need a 3/4" hole. I want to do this at the same time I do the Bluetooth retro fit.

The lowband antenna (80 MHz) might go on somewhere around the bonnet area so I don't loose too much clearance. 2008 Freelander 2 i6 Alaska White - current

Cheers for the reply's,
Radeco and Kiwi I cannot get your links to open!
and Mudslinger an impressive set up,
but I wouldn't have much room for my response gear, Smile
I guess I'll have to spend some more on a remote head set and Radeco I think you've found the only
place it can be mounted. Neutral

Links work fine on both my phone and laptop. You probably have to be logged in.

Failing that look for the thread on InControl Apps in the Car Electronics forum and go to page 3 or 4 to see Stuartc's bracket pic. 2008 Freelander 2 i6 Alaska White - current
