I need an antenna like Cushcraft R8, Gap Titan, Diamond CP-6 or something
like that with integrated radial systems.


My Hy-Gain AV-640 does a very good job. But dont forget - none of
these antennas can be mounted without guy ropes. I use 3mm
'starter-rope' that is sold in hardware stores. They label it as UV
resistant and having 180kg max. This rope was made as a starting rope
for lawnmower.

The radials a steel elements. around 1 m, hanging down very deep.
