I have an “extra” screwdriver antenna I replaced when I thought it wasn’t working right. Turns out the new one was about the same. I plan to (sort of) follow in Jim, N5RTG’s footsteps. He bought, and I will build, a remotely controlled mount for the screwdriver on the roof of the trailer. Just one more antenna to forget to lower when breaking camp, lol.
I had an Icom 706 in the truck. When it failed I replaced it with a 706 Mark II. I use it for HF and have a Kenwood DM-710 for V/U.
I had the 706 repaired and will put it in the trailer for HF/VHF.
