Hiya. I'm looking for advice from folk up to speed with the use of bike to bike comms using radios. I have an Autocom SPA that I'm about to install onto my R1200RS. Initially I'll set it up for rider/passenger comms and once that's sorted I'll work on bike to bike as my lady spends most of the time riding her own bike (Ninja 650). I've a few radios that I've inherited but the pair I intend to use are Kenwood TK 3202. To maximise performance an external antenna would be good. I can't find any information on suppliers or adapting the radios to fit a suitable antenna. Can anyone help here? If an antenna is installed behind plastics would it attenuate the signal significantly?
I have an adapter to power the radio from the SPA but I've read opinion that says a 4 watt radio would need more current than the SPA can supply. Does anyone have any knowledge on this?
If anyone can help it would be appreciated. It's a steep learning curve.
