Radio recommendations
Agree with Lou. 7300 is a good picnic table or Field Day radio. When I upgrade my home transceiver, I will likely start favoring the 7300 for portable and leave the PA at home. Can’t think of a radio

IC-705 anyone?
My non-engineer POV is do/spend whatever it takes ASAP to get on the air and have fun. As you operate you figure out what’s needed next. Get any antenna up and GO. Then work out the rest of your farm.
