We pretty much just used mine in the morning before Dave got out and set his up, but it worked excellently. I could hear the far end of the course with no problem, relayed for the neighbors, and talked to Main with no issues. I have an external speaker as well as the radio one. Set up on the hood, it was plenty loud at half volume, at least until the trucks starting coming by between us and the radios. I was parked farther away from our spot across the track, and there wasn't much traffic on Weatherman, so we just kept Dave's on and used the scanners to monitor Weatherman. My antenna is a permanently mounted, cut to tuned unit that Cameron had made for me. He could tell you more. The scanners just use the stubby antenna that came with, but you can use an external one.
Ironically, Casey's radio was about the worst transmitting one on the course. He had to have a lot of relaying done. It was also entertaining to listen to Weatherman's rants...but more on that in my story. I'm about half done.
. We checked in at 0530, and again when the lead cars passed us. Otherwise we didn't have anything to report all day.
