What I'm Running!
I am running an Icom IC-7000 in the motorhome and an AH4 tuner located inside the body near the ladder on the rear of the motorhome. While on the road I'm using a 102" whip mounted to the ladder and while parked I use a 31' fiberglass mast and attach a wire to the top which gives me about a 32.5 foot length of wire from the tuner. The radio will tune from 80 mtrs to 6 mtrs on both antennas. I also have some other random length wire antennas which I attach to a quick disconnect and throw a wire into a tree or whatever. I use a glass mounted dual band antenna for 2 mtrs and 70 cm. which is not great but works OK.
In the towed I also use a IC-7000 with an AH4 tuner mounted in the left rear wheel well and feeding a 102" whip for hf which will tune 80 mtrs thru 6 mtrs and a mag mount Diamond dual band antenna for 2 mtrs and 70 cm.
