I have now finished setting up the two way radio in my EcoSport. I have made a number of improvements from my first version such as an increased range (with better SWR) and seamless integration with the vehicle.

I have been using this setup since 2017, and made consistent and reliable contacts with stations within a 30-km radius. The farthest contact made with this setup in this configuration is 210 km (simplex).
