I'd rather not discuss the make and model of radio to keep negative comments at bay lol. However, let's just say it can either be mounted conventional or remote mounted with the included disconnect kit. Now back to the grits... I currently have the radio mounted under the dash. It is screwed directly into plastic. The bracket is ungrounded. Positive and negative both go directly to battery. The manual states if the radio is picking up engine noise or static, that you may ground the chassis of the radio through the bracket or rear of the radio. Anytime an extra ground is installed (either by jumper wire or bolting the bracket to the metal body) the radio loses most of the transmit power and there is no change in receive.

[QUOTE="Supspt454, post: 578665, member: 27333"] I'd rather not discuss the make and model of radio to keep negative comments at bay lol. However, let's just say it can either be mounted conventional or remote mounted with the included disconnect kit:). Now back to the grits... I currently have the radio mounted under the dash. It is screwed directly into plastic. The bracket is ungrounded. Positive and negative both go directly to battery. The manual states if the radio is picking up engine noise or static, that you may ground the chassis of the radio through the bracket or rear of the radio. Anytime an extra ground is installed (either by jumper wire or bolting the bracket to the metal body) the radio loses most of the transmit power and there is no change in receive. [/QUOTE]
