What should the placement be for the cell antennas? I presume that I need six. I can mount anything anywhere on this vehicle, so optimize. Also, I'm looking for either a laptop with cellular modem or a good source cellular modem. Thanks, Howard Pierpont Digital Equipment Corp. 77 Reed Road Hudson, MA 01749 508.568.6165
