Another option. I use a 17 meter hamstick and a remote auto tune Tuner,
ICOM AH-4, in my mobile and cover 6 through 40 meters with it. Forty
meters is down about 1 S unit from a 40 meter Hamstick but it works.

So, solution would be to use a mobile antenna, eg Hamstick; a remote
tuner, AH-4 or equivalent; and a counterpoise.

If you need everything from scratch it should cost about $250 [mostly
for the AH-4]. If the LDGZ100 is remotable then you have a $50 solution.
