[Mobile-Portable] HF Mobile-Use What Ever You Have-Screw Driver

[Larry Shumway]

I bolted a 24 inch piece of 2 x 2 ID square tubing to the frame on left rear
side of the 2003 Trailblazer.
That allows me to use the hitch mount and it's out of the way of the
tailgate and I can still pull a trailer.

.... and the screw driver antenna's like the HiQ and others offer the
advantage of auto tuning over a larger range from a single antenna for
all of the Hf bands when one is out hf mobile.

Am using a couple type of attachments for my 2005 Trail Blazer that
uses the hitch to mount any mobile antenna out there to it.

Works great mounted there for me too.
