Yeah, Chris, I have thought of that.
The screw-driver antenna I have on the motor home is called a Predator, and
it covers all HF bands from 80 through 10.
All you have to do to change bands is use different lengths of whips, and I
even have something called a Turbo-tuner to help tune the antenna itself, so
that seemed like a more practical solution to me.
But, you're right: ham sticks are an interesting way to go, and something I
might also try.
