[aprssig] Jeep Grand Cherokee Mount - for APRS antenna with more gain

The ONLY one I have found that will work is the Comet mount. It mounts 
to the lip of the lift gate and has two adjustments for the angle of the 
antenna. They are about $60.00 each. Associated Radio in Overland Park, 
KS carries them... I have two and they work like a charm without any 
clipping or other modifications!

I am using them on a 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The same mount will work up 
through 2004 then the body style changed. It MAY work for 2005 and/or 
later but your mileage may vary...
