That's a similar setup I will have in my Mazda 6 except I will mount the 400 with a dashboard mount and mount the Pipo X8 on the seat mount and use my Bose sound system for the speaker. Thanks again for all your help, no more red box Mike. See you on the reflectors KO4MDS.
Thank you! It's connected directly to a split wire that is connected to the battery. The Pipo run on 12 Volts DC, it's like it was made for hams ;-) Also, I install Anderson Powerpoll connector between the original power pac, and the DC connector, so I can bring it back in the house if needed. The DC connector is a very standard one. 73 Pascal VA2PV
Laboenligne.ca Thanks for the response, I just ordered a PIPO X9 - can you please tell me the exact mounts/plates you used, I have identified the cup holder and seat bracket mounts, I'm interested in what you attached the PIPO and FTM400 to

That's a great setup. Could you tell me more about the two brackets you used for the radio and speaker? Thanks
I missed what tablet you are using and if it is in a special holder. Very nice, compact set-up!
It's the Pipo X8 (run Windows 10 and Android). See the link below for more information. 73 Pascal VA2PV

This is a great install - what did you use to power the Pipo? Looks like a cig lighter adapter, I want to make sure if correct I order the right one

No, only for digital reflectors. 73
