Wow a Conspiracy that,s Funny..... the Things People Come Up With...

And did you ever think the Picture was taken on a Glass Table

If it was taken on a glass table, it was from underneath. The focus is on the front of the SDS100 and the SMA connector that is broken off. Therefore the SMA connector would have to be at the same focal length as the front of the SDS100. The mount itself on the scanner is out of focus.

Look at the photo and the broken off piece is at the same distance from the camera as the front of the SDS100. You can't have the front of the scanner in focus, the knob out of focus and the broken off piece even farther away back in focus. I am a part time photographer too that is why that stuff sticks out.

The RAM mount finger grip works great, and allows air exposure for cooling.

Jon, using this 'Ram Mount Finger Grip' does the two top finger grips interfere with the antenna and control knob? Or should they be left off when mounting the SDS100?

Jon,

could you post a picture of the SDS100 in the Ram Finger Grip?

Thanks.

It comes as a kit with the dual finger and 3 different lengths of single fingers. I use the long singles on top and bottom, as well as the lower position on each side.

SMA was a ridiculous idea IMHO.

Thanks Jon, very nicely set up and looks very secure. My arrangement with the X grip secures the top half of the radio well but the tapered bottom floats with the slight pressure of the rubber feet.

Always can count on you for the answers and solutions!

I like that.

Beautiful set up.

It's very secure. I've been using the same setup (with the fingers adjusted slightly differently) for the 436 for years in my truck, and it stays in place even going off-road.
