enough? is it ever enough...grin

well if you have local repeaters say within 100 miles  you should do OK
if you want to do both FM and SSB i would suggest loops for the bands 
you wish then an antenna such as the comet GP15
which is a 6 2 70cm vertical
put them all on the same tripod or pushup pole and have fun
