Re: Kenwood mounting
I Know this is an old thread, but I'm bored.
I put a antenna splitter in line to run a 30ft mast and base antenna when we did remote pits. I also run a Kenwood TK890H so I had dual band capability and I control both the TK890H and the TK790H from a single control head up front. On the Bronco, I had them both mounted underneath the back Mastercraft Bench seat on the seat mount frame. In the F350, they are on the back wall with blind rivet nuts. Before I mounted the radio's under the seat, I was considering making a bracket to mount the TK790H sideways onto of the wheel well against the sidewall. It would have been easier to access.
When my new rebuild of the 86/72 Bronco project is ready for communications, I plan to just run them under the back seat again.
