I decided I'm going to try to run MY BC9000xlt from a mag mount antenna mounted on my window sill. I am still looking into options for getting my outdoor antenna coax inside w/o drilling.( you guys have had some great ideas! thank you) But for now, what are some good mag mount scanner antennas? Who has experience with them? any links for me? Thank you..
you said you were gonna mount it on your window sill?
Is your sill metal? If not you will have to mount the mag mount to the top of a file cabinet, or put it on a cookie sheet, or a round pizza pan works well
Remember that aluminum doesn't count---------good luck..YMMV
Why spend the bucks on the mag mount though if your intentions are to move outside ASAP?
Buy the scantenna, set it up in the corner of the room, bet it does as well as a mag mount on the window sill, and looking at it every day it will give you motivation to get it outside....plus i bet with it sitting in the corner, if you have an XYL it will motivate her to motivate you
