250-B on a flagpole mast. Use a tube to hold mast into the front jack if stationary or a drive on under the trailer tires.

And keep the flag's d-ring on top of the flagpole and use it and a pulley to lift the center of a G5RV (100')

The 250-B mount is also a good place to tie off guy ropes.

Add a 2-way coax switch and you many options with little effort. 10-80M

I'm no longer in a QTH where I can put up a tower, or for that matter, any 
antenna.  So I am planning on doing some operating when we camp out.
I'm looking at a multi-band vertical that can be attached to the tent camper tongue 
framework (temporarily).  I want the antenna to cover 40-10 mtrs, easily set up and 
take dpown and can be collpsed to roughly 6 ft sections.  The old 14 AVQ would be 
pwerfect but is no longer made.
Any ideas?
