Well, in a fit of inspiration...I have come up with the tools necessary to do Portable (if not mobile) HF. As I will be in Missouri all this next week, I am taking my TS-450 with me and will be testing in SSB and digital modes. My setup will be:
TS-450S/AT
Astron SS-20 PS
Perth "Outbacker" antenna on a 4-1/2" magmount base.
For Digi modes, I will be using Digipan, MMTTY or MultiPSK with my direct interface for the TS-450.
I will place the antenna on the roof of my van and if possible, run coax into my room through the window (I may also try a Buddipole if I can borrow one). If I cannot get coax into my hotel room, I will operate from the van. Now, if the Outbacker can be used mobile...well then, that open a whole NEW window of opportunity!
Stay tuned for more info on skeds, to see if this will work...
