The hardest part about the entire thing was all of the “testing” I had to do. I actually scrapped my original, bought new materials and redesigned/built it to the one pictured. If you have a garage you can probably pull this together in an afternoon. If you’ve got some time and tools to make some of your own brackets, it will probably come out better than mine, with off the shelf stuff from my local hardware store. Still, all things considered, I’m in it for under $100, and most of that was buying and re-buying hardware, and supplies (like new grinder discs, a step up bit, etc). Realistically if you’ve got the tools and the time this is probably under $50 and an afternoon. I’ve just been really busy and kind of burnt out with work and stuff. I’ve got my antenna mounted using the Quadratec “Flag Mount”, which you can remove the flag stud and replace with an antenna and coax stud. Next step is running the power wires for the radio. Once that’s done, I’ll have pics and a write up.I like that! I can’t wait to see the write up. I decided to go with the small cobra handheld and am not a fan. So now I’m going back to the full size CB
