Beams are really needed if you want to make a reasonably serious effort. 6 meters is the most popular band followed by 2 meters then 432. So I would focus on getting beams for at least 6 & 2. A tv rotator would turn them unless they are monster beams which I doubt we would have. I have a tv rotator and a 2 meter beam. Just need to come up with a 3 element 6 meter and should be good to go. A 432 would be a nice bonus but not necessary to have a good time.
If the beams are resonant a Yaesu 857D would cover the bands and be have rig control.
