I'm planning to get a Yaesu FT-857D and operate mobile HF on as many
bands as possible. I see two options so far for my Jeep Wrangler- a
102" whip with a tuner or a screwdriver antenna. Which is the better
way to go?



For those selling them :-)
As far as efficiency, screwdriver will beat the pants off whip with base
tuner, especially on low bands.
