[Antennas] help with temporary mobile hf installation

2002年7月23日 10:43:08 -0500

I am taking a trip up to northern wisconsin in two weeks. I will be riding
in a 1995 dodge ram half ton pickup. 
I would like to do some operating during the trip. I am totally blind so
won't be driving at all.
The truck sits very high off the ground (cab top almost 6 feet). Need
recommendations for an antenna under the normal 8 foot length for use in a
mag mount.
Also, how big and what type mount should I use?
I plan to operate 20 and 15 meters, maybe 40 if I can make it work.
Rig will either be an argonaut 509, hw-8, or norcal 20. All depends on
whether I can get dials brailled and such.
I will be taking my mfj 971 tuner allong.
Thanks for any help.
