  It's through a magmount in the shack. It basically is when my TNC keys up for 
maybe a second or two at a time to transmit packet. I don't use the amplifier 
(to get the 45 watts) when I'm using voice repeaters. But, at times, packet 
conditions in this area have been very poor (especially with some nodes down 
from power outages from the recent ice storms), that I need the extra power to 
get in.
