KX2 so not much power. 53 feet of Wireman #534 should tune and radiate
on most bands with a KX2, and fit in a sandwich sized baggie. Another
chunk for a counterpoise.
Simple. Maybe not perfect, but simple.

I use a switch tapped air inductor with a variable C on one end. It is an L
network thus it is reversible and will match either Hi Z or Lo Z loads. This
always brings the load to within range the ATU in the radio can resolve a match.

Going way back to the original post, it seems to me that there is a simple
answer:
The OP wants something that is very portable, that the KX2 will tune.
The whole balun discussion comes from trying to match a near-infinite
impedance, and chopping the wire down a bit (or making it longer) is going to
bring it to an impedance that the tuner can match.
Lotta folks doing that.
