Check out the Casita web site or come and see ours...I compared about a half dozen 15-20 ft. brands. Unless you want to spend big bucks for an Airstream, the Casita 17 is a heck of a TT for two people

Beach
XYL and I are going to N Padre Island next weekend...I've surfed there but never tried amateur ops. When I go to the beach, I will take my portable antennas. Is there anything special I need to know?
