I will have to do a few installs on F-250s in the future and was wondering if you ran into any problems when installing the antennas or was it a pretty striaghtforward process (as I expect it to be)?

I think mine was easy enough. When I did my 2011 explorer not that was not easy at all with all the dang air bags and rear ac. I will pay someone to mess with that next time lol. But the truck that was nothing

The newer Super Duties have curtain bags - our new 2012 F450 did. I've never had a problem working around them - you just need to be careful. And don't parallel the coax with any control wiring - I don't know that it's ever occurred, but RF leaking into the control could cause airbag inflation... that wouldn't be pretty.BigTex1136 wrote:I think mine was easy enough.

As always, be careful of the beams that run across the cab, and ensure you mount the antenna in one of the "high spots" on the roof - not down in one of the corrugated valleys.

Good looking install.
The harris is on the Bernalillo County EDACS system? I would really like to hear about what options are needed and how you have that set up.
Please pm me
