Thanks Chris.(again!)

Any suggestions for a good no ground plane antenna for both applications?


I think just recently I read of someone who solved the ground-plane
issue for mag-mount antennas by using a big pizza platter. Mag-mounted
the antenna to the platter, and clamped the platter to a Hummer that had
a fiberglass shell. Worked pretty good, according to the author.

You might look into the Wilson dual band cellular trucker antenna that works
without needing a ground plane. Several mounts are available including one
for RV's.

I just bought a new RV that has an all fiberglass shell. It also has
thermopaine windows. (2 layers of glass with an air space between them.)

In my older RV I used through the glass antennas with great success, but
with the thickness and air space of the thermopaine windows they will not
work.

I am looking for suggestions for antennas that would preferable not

require
drilling into the shell, but if necessary the smaller hole the better.
I my Cell company is Verizon and is a triband phone.

My VHF needs are for 144-148
and UHF 420-450

Thanks
