screwdriver vs. tuner

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? Depends on what you mean by better. One caveat on autotuners; most I've looked at will be marginal at tuning a 102" whip on 40 and won't tune lower than that. If you decide on an autotuner, read the specs carefully before you buy. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
