[aprssig] mobile antenna for D7?

I'll ask this on the D7 list as well, but I think I'll get a more
useful response here. 

I'm revisiting my antenna choice for my vehicles. I've been using a 
couple of different mag mount antennas which are very flexible. That's
nice from a stealth point of view (they're pretty much invisible),
but the flex causes enough frequency shift that the D7 doesn't
decode most packets while in motion.

I'm giving up on mag mounts, and will probably use a Diamond K600
trunk lid mount. The question, then, is what antenna to attach to it.

On another vehicle, I'm probably stuck with a through-glass antenna,
though I'm not sure of that yet.

I'd really like to hear from folks that have had good luck with a mobile D7.

Thanks!
