Hi Wayne,
many thanks for that comments.
It is good to know that USSF troopers are equipped with your KX2, lol...
I am using KX3 in backpack in similar conditions (except copter crash) and I

Most any wire you put up can be made to radiate. The problem is
matching the feedpoint to the feedline. If you want to use coax for the
feedline, you must provide a proper matching network at the antenna
(balun or otherwise). Open wire line can be used with a matching
network in the shack.
Thanks for sharing this Wayne. That was our experience in SE Asia in
the 60's too, sans KX2 of course. If we could get the dipole 6-10'
high, we were good for both the day and night in-country nets and could
also work our HQ & Maintenance Depot at Clark AB in the Philippines 24

The K4 was exactly what I expected to see. The combination of my K3's great
performance with super smooth CW keying and the P3 pan adapter all rolled into
one. It's great to see everything in a single package with a large display. I

with all of the tailoring it allows, it's pretty obvious he doesn't know

I would suggest that ALL modern ERA radios have redeeming factors and the
user base will come to 'love' one and that will usually lead to overall
