I'm not sure but I think the max height for a motor vehicle (without a
special permit) is something like 13 feet, which means you should be
able to mount the whip up to 4 feet off the ground and have relatively
few problems. I'll check on that height limit......

You won't have to check..you'll hear it banging pretty strong. g They
are great antenna's, but not usually practical..and very odious looking.



In Washington the max vehicle height is 14 feet. That doesn't mean the
roads are required to clear a vehicle with that height, but it does
mean that any hard obstruction lower than 14 feet must be marked.
Maybe adding a small electric winch to pull down the tip of the
antenna, activated by a switch on the dash....?
