Wayne I'm a bit late on this thread but will the cost be in the $5-6K range?

Figuratively speaking. When the bands are open, the birds are singing, and the sun is shining, you’ll find us outdoors using a hand-held KX2 at 10 watts with a whip. But late at night, when propagation is in the tank and that rare DX station peeks over the horizon for a once-in-a-lifetime fleeting moment, seconds count and size really does matter. At these times, we flip the big switch.
