Yes. I'm going to be buying an LSA some time this year.

and b) how technically inclined you are.


The ham radio part of this doesn't hold any mystery to me at all: I've been
a ham for 35 years, and do my own installation of stuff in cars and the
like. What I don't know is what's possible, good, or legal in an aircraft.


Legal is physically separate from the aircraft radios. A ham
installation isn't a major modification. Use normal accepted
aircraft practices.
