Hello All, Mike here from Madison, WI. with my '78 :)

Planning to drive to FL In November. I have a good Wilson 1000 magnet mount
antenna. Thinking to put it on roof. One solution was to attach a metal
plat to roof with screws or I was thinking a good 2 part epoxy. I could
paint the metal, or a coating to prevent rust. Thinking 1/4" thickness?

2. I do have the first panel headliner coming off, so I could remove that (
another fix somehow - or change all RV headliner to something better, it is
a fabric on a thin board like material I can go look closer. ) then i
think there is foam up there? could remove foam, then gat like a 1/2" or
1/4" metal plate and attach it to the roof, and buddy says magnet will grab
hold through the roof and that is an elegant solution?

appreciate all advices.

Mike

CB I will probably make a little box for temporary mount. I like to keep it
free as antenna is as I might desire wot my it to my car or SUV for smaller
road trips.
