[QUOTE="Jason, post: 181343, member: 430"] The running on the mirrors pointed forwards (atleast on big trucks), is for when you get running down the road the wind pushes them straight up, which is where your signal is best at. You don't want to run them more than about 18 degrees tilt to the front. Anything more than that will decrease your signal. I've got a Magnum S-680 I'm running currently, 80+ watts out of the box, and I've got a Stryker coiled antenna. I can run with a guy 3 miles behind me, with a bigger whip style on the back of his sleeper that says I fade in and out, and the guy 5 miles back with a mirror mount properly setup who can hear me just as strong as if he was behind me.
