Bob,
What antenna are you using for your mobile?  I've uplinked on 2m using a 
standard 5/8 wave dual band mobile mag mount.  But I used a 70cm yagi for 
the downlink.

Ya know this stuff never gets old. I've been messing around with this stuff 
for about 50 years. This afternoon I finished installing my FT-8800 in my 
truck. I felt as nervous as when I was a novice with my home brew 6L6 (look 
it up). I worked 5 guys on AO-51. I just discovered a new wrinkle to this 
never ending hobby, my wife thinks I need a intervention, or help. Craig, it 
works super!
