oh, and get that antenna on the highest point possible and you wont loose reception.

When I put it on my work truck, i stick it to the roof of the cab. (its a freightliner 24 foot straight box truck). Going south its fine from here to florida. Comming home, futher north i get, the more drop outs i get.

Reson: The box of the truck sticks up like 3 feet higher then the cab, so it blocks the satellites but only when I go under overpasses. ITs only a few seconds each time though.
