Also - for legal reasons, this sort of antenna mod can only be done to
a real GMRS radio, for which a GMRS license is required. It's not
legal to modify the antenna setup on an FRS radio.
At one time Radio Shack sold a FRS radio that was designed for use in
an automobile. There was a part that went in the car and an external
antenna that went outside. The part that went in the car was really
just a remote control head, with the real radio being in the base
of the antenna.
If you can find one of them and get someone to seperate them
by a much longer cable, it would give you the height that you need.
