Vehicle Mount / APRS Use

[YourTech John]

I got my Gemini yesterday and mounted it today.  The mount I used is an "Arkon Heavy Duty Tablet Wall Mount".  Now, I have a Proclip mount in my car that this attaches to. Without that, you'll want a suction cup version, or just simply drill into an appropriate part on your dash. They also sell the holder separately so that you can attach it to any 2-prong t adapter.

I used to put a tablet in the car when supporting events for APRS use. But this is a perfect use for the Gemini, and it's a much more capable device than any prior tablet I've owned.

 I haven't ran the cables through the trim completely yet, but the 90 degree usb-c cable I picked up just manages to fit perfectly around the vertical support arm. The cable itself actually snugs into a track in the mount itself, securing it in place for when the Gemini is removed.  The gemini makes my 4th USB device for in my car. I have a regular android smartphone, a dashcam, a unifi hotspot (that white cable behind the gemini leads to it - will replace that with black as well), and now the gemini. I also have my amateur radio connected as well.

Nice setup! I might do something similar, thanks for the inspiration!

That is really neat. I bet a lot of hams would love these things, got to spread the word!

I'm wondering if anyone has seen a suitable mount that uses the dash 12V plug?

In my car the 12V plug would be a perfect mount as long as the Gemini was only
a few inches in front of it and could be adjusted for angle.

Thanks,
