Yep, but the VHF-lo band antenna is used for communications with Edsec :-)

TK108 is the only K9 vehicle I've seen that has the 2 smaller aerials mounted on the roof.

If you count all the aerials on the car including the car-radio (music) they total 5!! More than a MIG car!

What is the aerial for on the front bonnet, i've seen quite a few pics of TK cars with these fitted.??

Of interest at the Open day at Joondalup they front passenger seat serves in TK108 as a mobile work-station with books/files you name it somehow attached to the seat, only room for the driver in these cars.

I meant to say that the 2 smaller aerials are normally the wire whip-type like the UQ (ROG's) cars have. They look quite smart although they not very high, so I wonder if this affects their performance.
