I own a High Sierra antenna and I would recommend it highly.  I have used
it for over a year with great success.  I've looked at several, and this
one is one of the best quality ones I've seen.  It is quite professionally
done.

The HS-1500 antenna is an enhanced version of our 3rd generation product,
the model HS-1000. The antenna now incorporates experience gained in
producing over 1500 hf mobile
antennas. Here are some product highlights: 

     Expanded frequency coverage--1800kHz to 54MHz 
     "High Tech" capacity hat--based on conical surface 
     Special high-performance RV modification available 
     New motor and gear drive--facilitates future options 
     Painted versions of antenna (choice of black or white) now available:
Very nice! 
     Mounts for almost any vehicle 
     High-power/high-temperature center loading coil 
     Exclusive "decoupler" system--no copper fingers 
     Improved matching system 
     Remote control panel with limit indicator
