There is a FMCA ARC (Amateur Radio Chapter), http://www.fmcaarc.com/ . I have been a member about 6 months. I missed their rally very near my home a few months ago. There is a 1:00 EST net on 14.3075 Mon, Wed, Fri and general qso's Tue and Thu, same time/freq.
While mobile, I HF/VHF with an Icom IC7000/500W Ameritron HF amp. and an Outbacker Perth antenna that's mounted on the mirror. The antenna mount/feedline is Freightliner factory installed for CB's with 3/8-24 threads. It's about 14' overall and it hits very few underpasses...trees are different story. It's mounted on a Hustler quick connect and I can remove the antenna from the drivers seat if I see trouble. Camper is about 13'3" overall. When stopped, I use a tripod stand and an Outbacker Outreach vert.
