In this video, I tackle the trunk installation for the new mobile ham radio after finding out the old bracket mounting holes didn’t line up. Watch as we secure the new mounting bracket using self-tapping screws and get the radio firmly in place. Once powered up, we run a quick on-air simplex test on .52 with Bill (K0WHW) from the Think Lab campus.
