It's a 4-1/2 foot whip, working against the coax shield as a 'radial'.
Probably the coax will radiate more than the whip, especially if the
coax is stretched out full length.
An indoor dipole would certainly work better. A couple of pieces of wire
matched by the K3 tuner would work as well or better. There is also the
likelihood of RF on the coax affecting the transmitter, or arcing to the
operator if the circumstances are right!
Don't waste your money.

I have a K3/10 SN 4052 that I would like to use in an apartment/condo with no

MFJ-1621as possibility. Any comments or other recommendations are desired.
