Question Ham Radio Install

Is there anyone in the Mesa AZ area that does ham radio installs? I have a 2018 F250 SuperDuty, diesel, XLT and I want to put in a HF ham radio and I'm looking for a good installer (needs to do grounding and full install).

Please shoot me a note if any of you guys can recommend someone in the area. I'm not looking to do this myself, I will help with the install but I need to have someone that really knows what they are doing and it's not me! :-)

Thanks
Rob

Interesting... I haven't had a CB in a rig in nearly 40 years, and haven't been around ham radios for longer than that.

How strong is ham radio usage these days?

Well, you can get a 200watt mobile radio but there are very few of those, most mobile ham radios are 100 watts but a lot of guys are putting in small 500 watt amps. Hey, you can get a 400 watt CB these days! Dang!
