That makes me want to put my High Sierra Sidekick back up tomorrow.
We have been out of town on business and I took the antenna down, It's mounted on a portable tripod. So I now have a project for tomorrow.
Need to go to the candy store and buy another radio for the base. I am going to mount the radio I use at home in the RV.
Anyone been using a IC-7000 or a IC-718 ? I am now using a IC-706MKIIG for my base station, but it's kind of a pain in the back side to move it back and forth to the RV, But then again having a radio sit in the RV and not using it for months at a time is also a waste.
While we were on our trip I made many contacts on 20m and 40m from my mobile in my P/U. My wife asked why I don't use the rig in the P/U more than I use the 2m/70cm radio. So I started using the 706 for the entire trip.
