Dave,
I would love to see what your Tahoe looks like. I will try to get some exterior pics of mine up. I need to put D-STAR in as well. We have a full stack on the air, again thanks to the W8DIG club. Do you have a 900mhz repeater on the air?

I know a few places that will order a PPV.
Police Interceptor is a Ford (trademarked) item only. You have a Dodge Charger Police Package. Why do people think that every police car out there is a Police Interceptor?

I'll snap some pics just as soon as the new console comes in. However, is a photo of what USED to be in there at http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...4_321831889070_709629070_3581923_169298_n.jpg

Looks awesome. I didn't know about that SSV version. Could you post exterior pictures of the whole truck?

Did you design the layout? If so it looks nice. Did you put cup holders at the aft end of your console?
Frank & Cowboy,
I took a "cellular look alike" CB antenna and attached it to an old NMO base that was laying around. It's connected to the Midland CB and works well due to the huge ground the SUV provides.
The cup holders are an option from RAM Mounting systems.
I will try to get exterior pics posted soon.
Thanks!
Matt

Can you tell me what connectors you used to connect the Aircard to your truck antenna and which specific antennas you used for this?
Hi rki616,
The antenna is the Antenex TRAB821/18503 Phantom. This is a dual band antenna for 800mhz and 1950mhz. I used a Larsen NMO mount with dual shield coax and an FME connector already installed. The air card has a coax jumper from the RF connector to the female FME connector on the end of the low loss coax.

Matt

That is one heckuva install!! Great job!
Here is my install with the Havis Console installed. (I do not have the SSV Model, I have the Tahoe LTZ)

If you think the bracket for the ID800 looks strange, it's because it's not a radio they make a bracket for, and I improvised a little.

Nevermind, I'll PM you
I found it at a dealer near Nashville, TN. My local dealer bought the SSV from them and had it trucked up here to Columbus for me.
