I suggest you join the NA SOTA Yahoo group.  It's open, these are folks 
who hike [and at least one runs] up mountains, and there's a wealth of 
knowledge about lightweight radio and antennas, and gear to carry it all 
in.  See the cc address above.  You may not be outside on your travels, 
but there is lots of good info there about field radio away from home.
