Anybody have a picture or ideas of a (neat/clever) backup handheld radio
intallation with an external antenna?
My main radio is an Xcom and my back up radio is an Icom A-24 nav/com
handheld.
I have a dedicated external whip antenna for the handheld.
I have not had the 'Aha' idea yet but it would be nice to tame the spagetti
cable look.

Handhelds are usually difficult due to the controls & display being on 2 or more faces.

In the past I've panel mounted a Delcom 760 by making a 3" plate that the radio fits into behind the radio's faceplate, fastened from behind in a custom al. sheet box and with no battery pack.

Thats OK for 3" instrument holes, for smaller its probably best to get another Xcom, Microair or Becker.
