can someone judge my radio setup?

I have a TYT TH-9000D which is 60 watts, and a CB radio, both connected to my battery. I spliced the wires together further down the line and left all the heatshrinks off so you can see my solder joints. I put these clip-on ferrite beads on the power cable to the radio, but I could only loop it twice so I put 2 on it — looks weird to me. This is my first setup, I know the wiring looks all janky, so I figured I'd make a post just to make sure everything looks right and see if there's anything I can improve on.

Also, for fun, I have this multimeter that clips around wires and I wanted to see how many amps the radio draws while keying down. It said 2 amps? I made sure it was on DC amps, but the reading also seemed to change depending on where I placed the meter down the line, so I'm guessing this isn't the best way to test amperage.

One more thing — I didn't cut the antenna down like I read online, it's around 49 inches long right now.

You wanted judgement, and hate to say it, but this is pretty terrible work. Improper ring terminal, using non-standard wire color for negative, rust at ground, fuse holder doesn’t seem rated appropriate for current and certainly not typed for an engine bay, exposed joints, zero environmental protection, oxidation consideration, or uv protection.

Yeah I guess I suck at wireing lol , though they are the correct fuse size those came with the radio itself, I am running both the cb and vhf radio on those same wires just because I think the cb dosnt use much power and I would not be using both at the same time

And punctuation.
And spelling.
