Howdy. Have not been around for while. Work, work, work and well, you know.......

FINALLY properly grounded my CB and UHF/VHF antennas to the hood and frame since the powder coating on my Ditch Light brackets were not providing a solid ground plane. Made a huge difference. Now the whole body and chassis is one linked ground plane.

I been trying to get to this for a couple of months and knocked it out today.

Note to CB and UHF/VHF installations and ditch lights. Highly recommend braided mesh grounding.

To protect the hood edge paint and for looks, I used Plasti Dip spray paint to cover the flexible metallic mesh. It REALLY HID the mesh visually when zip tied to the existing coax and power for the light..
