Street - how did the Pike Peak climb go?? Great pix...
I also try to go stealth as possible, so someone doesn't get a bright idea to steal my ham gear. Black, lower profile antennas, tuck the gear up under dash if possible. No ham callsign license plates. Did that for a while, then realized how easy it was to find me.

So having the big Motorized screwdriver antenna would be nice, it takes so much room and such a strong mount (like a hitch) and everyone can see "there is a nice radio in that car if he's got that antenna" Just my two cents.

Yaesu 857 would be nice though!
