Hi Jeff,
Depends upon what you exactly want to do while packet mobile. I have run
packet radio mobile for a while now and found the best combination to be a
small laptop with a Baycom modem and Baycom software. Of course this might
not be what you want.
A good antenna and some power is a must as there is a great deal of
flutter and multi-pathing while moving. I found 2M to give better results
than 70cm but that could be due to the location of the digipeaters and
surrounding terrain.
Experiment and see what suits you best.
