Radar reflector

[gdrosen]

Anyone have a suggestion as to where best to mount a radar reflector on a R-31CB?

I have one of these attached with a few zip ties on the flag pole section of the mast on my R31-S

I'm sure you could find a spot on the CB mast for it

There no faux smoke stack on those, is there? I was surprised when I had to take the fiberglass piece off my roof that was part of the faux stack and saw the factory (I assume it was them) had fiberglassed a radar reflector inside the stack.

They stopped doing that, I took my stack off when installing StarLink on top of it, mine didn't have that. It's a 2018. There is a thread somewhere on tug nuts talking about this no longer being a thing - sadly

Followed friend a month ago in heavy fog he has a bigger newer brand X, and he has no reflector. Within a mile range I got a very small target, but I knew where he was via our AIS signals.
