Not sure if the ATU will match an EFHW, impedance is very high. But a
6:1 transformer may get it into matchable range for you.
In CA, "ham radio" operation is exempted from the cell phone law [that
doesn't make fooling with the radio any less dangerous :-)], don't know
about digital modes ... doesn't sound safe to me.

I was thinking of wire antennas to get started.
I chose the tuner over a solution like the Buddipole with that in mind.
I'd put the KX3 in the car, but I like digital modes, but I don't want
to see if the CHP would consider PSK-31 to be "texting."

Many of the SOTA crowd use end-fed half-wave wires ... no ground or
counterpoise required. Of course, they are generally doing this on
mountain tops which helps, but they are universally QRP or close to it.
