Installing the Antenna on the Group Ride Radio Mount
NOTE: The mounted antenna must be at least 4 cm (1.57 in.) away from the
nearest roll bar or metal surface to avoid radio interference.
You can mount the antenna directly onto the Group Ride Radio mount. For the
best results, use this method only in vehicles that do not have a roll cage.

vehicle, to receive better radio reception. For the best results, use this
method for vehicles that have a roll cage.
