1500w mobile!!! Are you serious? I'd guess 200-250w would be adequate for

When you get serious, here's how to do it. My Elmer, W7UVR, ran a high level
modulated 4-1000A mobile in the 1950s. Later went to SSB and a 15KW generator in
a bigger trailer. The one in the photo (trailer) was "only" 5KW. The whip
antennas had motor-tuned matching networks with vacuum variables and edge-wound
inductors. The beam was later replaced with a tribander, diced up with machined
tubular hinges built by a tool-maker ham friend.
