Antenna and installation decisions are very important in the mobile environment -- as a mobile operator you must face the fact that you're stuck with less than optimal antennas and grounding system.
The main thing I don't like about either rig is the fact I like to monitor HF and VHF at the same time.
The first step to determine where to mount the rig is to just sit in the driver's seat and take a look around.

Chronologically, these happened in the order presented: first there were the fixed ham shacks, then the mobileers, and finally the body-borne technologies (portable and wearable, implantables, etc.).
Of particular interest are the latter two categories (Mobile and Portable) because they have been made possible by miniaturization of components.

The US Gulf contracted rig count increased by six rigs from April to June, and an additional modest increase in activity is likely during the second half of the year.
At any given time under US Gulf rig market conditions that have prevailed in recent years, 75% of the rigs under contract may have no firm commitments beyond 90 days in the future, and this has resulted in aggressive bidding on the part of rig owners, and with constrained day rates.
US Gulf rig supply has declined by 20 mobile rigs over the last year, and relatively few rigs are actually ready and available to go to work in the area.

 Compact CPT Crawler rig
The rig weighs about 1.5 tonnes and is able to screw in groundanchors to find more resistance for deeper testing.
The rig was required to manoeuvre through a 1.2m wide passageway to reach a central courtyard where it performed five tests (using its ground anchors to produce a 20 Tonne reaction force) to a depth of ≈18.0m.
Due to the rig only weighing 3,5 tonnes, extra reaction force was gained by bolting the rig down to the concrete floor.

 MobileTechNews - World's first WiMAX oil rig deployment
AlanDick, the communications infrastructure specialist, has landed the contract for the world's first deployment of a WiMAX multipoint network at sea, on board a cluster of 11 off-shore oil rig platforms in the Gulf of Mexico.
As well as being the world's first WiMAX network deployment to an oil rig cluster, the installation will be Mexico's -- and quite probably South America's -- first major WiMAX network.
This makes it ideal for an off-shore oil rig deployment, where the distances and variable, often hostile, weather conditions involved will push any wireless technology to its limit," he added.
