I know it will be a PITA in the woods, so I have another mount for that use (Arizona Rocky Road).
Got the rack on today, and installed the cb. The grounding is not 100% yet (only 1 of 4 corners grounded), but was able to tweak the SWR down to 1.5-1.6, with a Wilson 1000 mag mount on top. Good enough, but transmission will most likely be better when I ground all 4 corners of the rack.
