I use an Icom 736 for the transciever. It covers 6 - 160 and the antenna is a Tarheel 200A. I have a telescoping pole that I cut both ends off of that fits nicely in one of the bays and takes up no room. I attach the antenna to the pole and attach the pole to my rear ladder. Same should work attached to the tow hitch of your TT. I replaced the whip on the Tarheel with a cb 102 steel whip. That gives me a little wider coverage on the lower freqs. I was just in a campground in Colorado with a couple of other hams that were using Buddi Sticks and sloper ants and my Tarheel out performed their antennas in every way. Since I only run 100 watts, I could have used a much smaller Tarheel but I may someday want to put an amp in the MH.
