I think using SSB mode, a cheap push-up pole or 25 ft of masting, a $120 3 element beam, and a $80 ChannelMaster rotor surely won't break the bank. 

It will save you all of the trouble of getting your license too. 

Do you know if you even HAVE a 2m or 440 repeater in your area? 

I'd find out first . . .


The terrain around is important too.

Is it flat or are you in a valley?
