Bend the whip on a magmount?

I want to put my 2M 5/8-wave mag-mount on the trunk lid, which slopes down at 20 degrees. I am concerned that most of my signal is going into the ground or outer space. Can I bend the long whip so it stands vertically? Should I do it? does the downward slope of the ground plane leave a problem unaddressed? Ken KC2JDY 5/8 Wave requires a ground, but not a ground plane. I'd get a proper clamp, but bending will probably work OK. |
