GM,
I have a portable antenna with 42' wire. It is fed with 7' of
RG-8X. The ground of the coax goes to a 8' counterpoise and the
other end is soldered to the antenna. You run the coax through a
window and the antenna and counterpoise are outside. the orientation
of the counterpoise is not critical.

Gents,
I have a KX1 which I want to take with me on a trip to Phoenix, AZ in early
March. I wonder if there is anyone out there that has tried the portable
wire antenna as suggested in the KX1 material but used a feedline of some
sort with it. I'd like to get the antenna a bit away from the operating
position and wonder if coaxial cable, ladder line, or TV feedline might
work.
Needless to say I'd still need/use the ATU in the KX1.
Anyone has any thoughts?
Thanks.
Ralph, VE7OM
