Default Antenna Mounting

Well, I am getting the motor home ready for a summer family reunion (Miami to Des Moines and back) and trying to figure out mounting antennas for mobile operation.

I use a Tar Heel when in fixed camp and have a Diamond lashed on the ladder for 2 meters for the TS2000. I want to put up in a CB (ugh) antenna and of course 2 meters on the road. Thinking of just putting both the CB and 2 meter up on the ladder. I checked the other day and the ladder isnt grounded so I am going to have to sort that out.

Being a new RVer am hesitant to drill into the fibreglass up near the drivers side window. Would imagine though its simply finding the metal frame word for the side walls and drilling.

Any words of wisdom?

Thanks and 73
Mark
