I have put together a fully portable radio system that you can take anywhere to operate. The systems includes the following:
* Yaesu FT-857D.
* LDG Z-11 Pro automatic antenna tuner.
* Buddistick deluxe vertical antenna system with optional tripod.
* 25' RG8X coax.
* 2 - Hobbico 12V 7Ah batteries with Voltwatch LED power monitors.
* FT-857D mini manual.
* Wenger Swiss Gear Backpack.
All items fit into the packpack for easy transport to any remote location.

Not that I can afford it right now ($875), but it appears to be a good reference point.
How much operating time and output power would those two batteries afford with that setup?
