I agree 100% The Icom 208 is a tough dual-bander. I have one in my toad/storm chase truck with a Comet SBB-7nmo 55" whip and it has served me well. My base for the motorhome will be a yaesu 7800 with a Cushcraft dual-band rotated beam. My mobile bicycle rig is an Icom T7h handy-talkie with a Tram 33" dual-band whip. I also have a Radio Shack HTX-10, 25 Watt, 10 meter all-mode and an Antron 99 vertical that I don't know what to do with. I will probably donate it to the local ARC when I move into the RV. I have not pursued HF other than 10 meters although I am a General and my wife is an Extra...maybe one of these days!
