I'll be installing a metal roof rack one of these days. But where is the best place to mount both a CB and Ham antenna for best performance? I really don't want to mount one or both between the tire carrier and the rear door as it seems that most people have poor performance there. I have thought about mounting the Ham antenna on a hood mount that sticks out the side of the hood, but if I ever get limb risers, this might interfere. I don't want to mount it on the rear bumper as well for the same reasons in mounting it between the tire carrier and the rear door. That pretty much leaves the roof rack.
Would it be in poor practice to mount them on top of the roof rack? This would also put it in the way of branches and other junk. The hood might be my best bet in the end. Just not sure.
