    I'm looking for A two or three pack, 6w each. Or more. Next is one or two vehicle mounted 12 volt supplied with possible 110 to 120 volt household adapter or second power inlet. Those should be 50 to 60 watts each or more if you know of models that qualify. I would like them to be on the smaller side to micro or remote mounted in the vehicle. And then looking for to base type units and one unit of the vehicle mounted, would be on a boat next to my Marine / CB radio. And the portable handheld ones need to have a silent mode voice activated, possible extra batteries, or a way for them to be charged in a vehicle or both. And if possible a covered auxiliary antenna input for more range. And looking for suggestions for that antenna, a vehicle mounted antenna, Boat mounted, and base
    Type antennas. The base mount antenna would be about 30 ft off the ground. And then should I be worried about lightning strikes, and how do I protect it ??? I was thinking about mounting it below the top of the antenna and have a lightning rod setup above, on top of the post or Tower with a ground going all the way down and 6 ft into the ground or welded to expanded metal under the ground, to distribute the electricity underground in case of a strike. Your suggestions will be highly considered, if not thought of as my purchase guidance tool. Thank you so very much for your time. I am disabled but volunteer my time with multiple disabled veterans groups. Getting the more severely disabled veterans / and PTSD diagnosed veterans out and about on off-road trails, rock climbing, boating, tuna fishing.
    Once again thank you for your time, reply, Michael.
