i wish i knew how to post links to make things easier, sorry.
i just made my purchase from gigaparts.com hope it gets here soon. ive been looking at the 2 meter quad antennas that cubex.com has, trying to figure out what would be best for my purpose. i plan on hiking alot with my set up so i need to find a tripod as well. cubex sells a phasing harness w/a cross arm for a second antenna to achieve more gain. by doing this will i get more gain or is the salesman throwing a pitch? the yellowjacket seems compact enough for hiking but where can i find a tripod to fit that would be compact while carrying yet 6-8 ft erect?
