The HF mobile urge has hit me again.  Sales folks have not been helpful.
I am seeking the group's input on this, as a result.

HF mobile rig

*  Must be NTIA Compliant
<https://ntc.cap.af.mil/comm/equipment/hf_summary.cfm>
*  Remote control head (mounting in a Cavalier)
*  crossband repeat would be nice (HF to two and back)
*  automatic antenna tuner
*  I am wanting to do ALE and PSK31
*  I also will occasionally want to use the radio on 110

Antenna

*  It looks like I will be using HamStick (any feedback?)
*  Trunk lip mount do OK?
*  Will the automatic antenna tuners tune a longwire?

Anyone using any of these rigs have any comments?

Thanks for your time.
