    Maybe its only the S4 that has two ports, thats not to say that they aren't both tuning ports.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Not sure about your cradle, but I'm using the 'smooth talker' cradle and external antenna in my utes, trucks and equipment.. They are of no use in remote or no coverage areas, but definitely do work in marginal areas or where the signal is dropping in and out. On my 130 I ran the cable from the bullbar, along the chassis rail up into the Gromit that takes the wiring loom into the back of the instrument cluster. You need to undo the plastic surround on the gauges top and bottom, shuffle the whole instrument cluster to one side and I used a straightened out coat hanger to feed the wire thru the bulk head. As for power, pop the cigarette lighter out and splice into its wiring.. Mine works a treat

    Installation of mobile phone antenna

    Went down the path as well with zero improvement, as said here before you would need a phone with a antenna plug on the phone (only very few remaining) to make it worth while. I removed my antenna and cradle again
