Easy install in the Alfa Romeo 159

So I'm a glutton for punishment and bought myself another Alfa Romeo and not only that but after swearing to never buy another black car, I bought this black one, now black car #3.

As stated before the install for the Yaesu VX-7R is really easy using the ClicOn phone mount and RAM mount for a GPS 'button' which matches the Yaesu perfectly. Now to figure out how to attache a button to my iPhone so I can interchange the 2 as desired and only use one mount otherwise I'll have to get a second ClicOn mount which goes up on the dash....not my ideal mounting spot.

Here it is in the car, nice and simple.



I think it needs some more antennas on the back...............

  1. Hello Owen,
    Your car is very nice :-)
    I've watch your QSO with DK8MZ on https://youtu.be/5nZiIBa0P70. I have seen your aerials conditions with street view. Your skip with Munich was magic. Congratulations for this fantastic QSO with 10w power.
    I see an MFJ1979 on your car : some results are visible on my page on qrz.com, I've realised QSO with ZL3OZ during June and July 2019 (weak but possible). I hope to meet you on the air. Mobile to mobile stn by LP way will possible in some years.
    Best 73.
