Install new crank up where no antenna has gone before??
My rig has a fixed omni antenna that has terrible performance. Have replaced the head and amp and checked the coax. I think most of the reason is that it's tucked behind and a bit below my air conditioner.
I'm thinking of installing a crank up but it won't fit where the current antenna lives. I think the factory is now installing crank ups 2-3 feet to the side of where my fixed one is located.
Is it a big deal to install a crank up in virgin territory?
Is there such a thing as a SIDEWAYS crank up? If so, I could install the base there the current antenna is and drop the head to the side.
