In the video I said the antenna model wrong for the Comet CSB-790A. Below is a link to the Comet website for antenna details. At the same link you can find the information for the Comet SBB5 that is used on the small tripods.

The antenna tuner is the LDG RT-100.

The transformer for the antenna is the LDG 9:1 UnUn. It is the red one on the website.

The boxes and mounting plates are the Milwaukee Packout.

The tripods are TV antenna tripod for mounting on a roof. The were purchased on Amazon for around $70. These are the 5 foot model but there are shorter ones available.
Later when I do some upgrades to the radio box I will do a video showing how I made the shelf move up and down.

Great setup! Lots of good ideas in this one!

Can you provide more detail on the rail system that raises the radio when you open the lid? I have a 991A that I am looking to make portable. Your solution there is very interesting.

I have a video where I have the top tray removed to show the inside with a description.

What’s the SWR look for 2M and 70cm for that SBB5 antenna.?

[@DashcamInSLCCa]

The SBB5 is a no ground plane required antenna. When I first built the tripods and tested it with the nano VNA it was all in line with the manufacturer specs of the 1.5:1 SWR range. I have used those antennas on other setups I had and just had them clamped to things with Ram Mounts and they work very well.
