Hi all,
just got a brand new VHF radio for my boat and was wondering where is the best location to mount the Antenna is and what size to get. We have a 17.5 foot boat and are considering going for a 4'long antenna instead of the eight foot long one.Does any one know if the 4 foot long one would be good enough for reception or should we go for the longer one? We are going to mount it on the side rail 3 ft up or so from the water.Does anyone have any recomendations...... any feedback would be appreciated.
TY
