My class A will be easier -- it's nearly all wood and fiberglass, so there's little to bond other than the frame itself. I'm considering various screwdrivers, leaning toward the KJ7U versions. Currently using a vertical dipole consisting of the ladder (lower half of the dipole) and a stainless whip (upper half of the dipole). The ladder isn't grounded, so it works as the lower half, and I feed with coax at the top of the ladder, which is the bottom of the whip. All running from an Icom IC7000 and LDG IT-100 tuner, which will tune it everywhere from 6 meters to 40 meters.

Unfortunately, though it tunes, no one hears me. Gotta do something better.
