Default Bend the whip on a magmount?

But why the trunk lid? Surely the roof is better? On a vehicle, every
inch above the ground helps.

The car is being used for 2M fox hunting. The Doppler antennas are on
the roof. The MFJ-1728B is on the trunk lid.

Are you saying that the 6 dB gain of this antenna is not high enough
for a 20 degree tilt to make a difference?
