I'm a Ham! VE7GKH. What radios are you thinking of to take with you? Most will operate off of 12V. I have an extra battery that i take when i take my radios. If it's just 2M, then i have a portable handheld unit along with the one in my truck. If i take my HF unit, then i run it of the extra battery, but if i knew i was going to where there were hookups, then i would probably take my power supply, but it's not needed. I use my antenna that's on my truck for 2M. For HF, i use a wire antenna that you could string up at camp (but i rarely take my HF camping). So, if you just take a dedicated battery for your radios, along with the means to recharge via your solar panel, you should be good to go! 73, Gary
