Just don't touch the roll bar. :-)

Thanks for all the ideas guys. I'm still really interested in the
cophasing thing. I have mounted a CB whip on the roll bar before, but
it has two disadvantages: Extreme height of the antenna and the
inability to close the soft top while the antenna's up. Could I not
cophase diagonally and therefore center the patten ?
