I used a DMM, a QRP wattmeter, dummy load, power supply, ruler, and a
piece of wire for an indoor antenna through an antenna tuner. I also
checked out the KX1 signal with another receiver. If you homebrew stuff,
you probably have the tools that you need. You will need a cutter that
can do a good flush cut for building the KX1.

Subject: [Elecraft] KX1 Mojo a-go-go
I've finally begun building my KX1, s/n 1005. It's been an easy build
thus far. I've just finished the receiver alignment. Elecraft, WHAT did
you put inside those components?!? With a 20' piece of wire (lying on
the floor) attached to the antenna jack center pin, I'm pulling in tons
of stations on 20 and 40m! Great sounding receiver! I've already built a
couple of K2's and a K1, and I have to say that this little KX1 is a gem!
