Crazy George sed:

"At 15', you are in the near field of any HF antenna. You do not want your
station to be in the near field of the antenna. All kinds of undesirable
and often unpredictable things happen."
---------------------------------

Kind of rules out mobile operation.

Of course the metal body of the vehicle probably shields the station from the
effects of the near field.
