Alright thanks to a good deal on the forum swapshop I'm going to be getting a yeasu 857D in the mail soon.
How what kind of antennas will I need for this bad boy? I will be running this out of the jeep, so I will need something that is vertical, mobile, and weatherproof.
I've seen something that has an adjustable whip for HF where you either replace the actual whip with a different length, Is that the best type? or does someone make an automatic one that adjusts to your frequency?
I'm currently running a TRAM 1140 antenna with my cobra 29 and I am pretty satisfied with it's performance. should I stick with a similar setup for HF?
then I will need a second rubber duck antenna for 2M/ 70cm correct?
does anyone have recommendations for me on either or both of these antennas?
Thank you!
