Systems, methods, devices and apparatus are disclosed that include a chassis mount adapted to be attached to a vehicle and an antenna mount adapted to receive a satellite antenna. Further, the systems, methods, devices and apparatus that include a gyroscopic stabilizer attached to the antenna mount configured to convert vibrational torque applied to the antenna mount into a linear displacement of the antenna mount using one or more gyroscopes, each gyroscope having a control moment. In addition, the systems, methods, devices and apparatus that include a linear displacement spring attachment device connecting the antenna mount to the chassis mount and configured to provide a restoring force in opposition to the linear displacement.
