Always have enjoyed building projects...my most recent
was homebrewing a 40M QRP rig with all the features...
But if I look in the log...a stunning number of my DX
contacts result from the mobile rig, which is a Yaesu FT-900 driving a
single band hamstick vertical atop the Explorer. (usually 15 M) 
Hope to run across you again from Shack or the Highway. 73's , Greg
