Looks like my K2 could be orphaned for a while because the Apartment
Management's latest  Patrol Harridan decided that my 30-foot-long
"Emergency Antenna" (end-fed wire) from my porch to the nearest tree had
to come down after 4 years - took a lot of looking to see it in the
first place.  I'm not all that sad, because the way it operated, the
outside of the coax shield was the counterpoise, bringing RF into the
radio room that locked up my laptop if I wanted to use it for digital comms.

With that said -- I am considering an Alex-Loop which will meet the
aesthetic requirements of the Patrol Harridan (who fortunately is
"overlooking" the 3 J-Poles) but it is impossible for me to install the
loop on the porch and tune it from the radio room 30 feet and two rooms
away.  Is there any solution for a remote tuner?  Or haven't I looked
far enough?
