I guess it depends how portable you really wanna be...
I assume that is sort of a backpack rig...
If I were toting a backpack rig, I decide on what bands
I wanted, "within reason", and concentrate on those...

You aren't familiar with the FT-817? Only the neatest little 5
watt rig to ever come out. That is MY opinion of course. All mode 160 thru
70 CM, I have had more fun with this rig than any others I have ever owned.
