Thanks guys for all the good info I decided to go with fiberglass sticks I don't mind changing the sticks with each band and they'll do double duty on the pickup. I'll make a mount for the camper to except the 3/8 antenna fitting I'm thinking a hinged mount on the bumper to get the sticks above the camper roof (it's an aluminum roof so I have some bonding to do). I did buy two 20 meter ones to go on my dipole mount I'll just use the two as a dipole when I'm parked that will give me 4 bands 10,12,15 and 20. I also got an LDG auto tuner, the 706 does not have a tuner and my twist-omatic MFJ tuner is bigger then the radio. I'll post some pictures when I get it all together 73's, Tim
