I’ve got an inexpensive GMRS handheld… will reception/tx be sufficient from within the bronco with the hard top on, for club rides, or should I look at getting an external antenna?

Yeah putting the handheld in the cubby under the radio would always cause us to get crazy static when no one was keying the mic in our group.
I went the Bfong 25w was going to go the 50w but the 25 is waterproof. I did add the midland ghost antenna not the best for range but works well for us. I am using the Trackform phone mount I just glued some washers to the back of the handset so it sticks.
