Gene,
I've had a lot of fun on vacations with my KX2 and a BuddiStick by
BuddiPole:
http://www.buddipole.com/
The price, for the Deluxe kit, is probably comparable to what you'd pay
for an AlexLoop. I just clamp mine to the arm of the chair, the table,
whatever, with the included clamp, string out the included radial, and
have fun. It tunes great with the combination of tapped loading coil and
the built-in tuner on my KX2. I also have the tripod BuddiPole sells,
but don't like it as much as the clamp. It's a very small tripod, and
the way the antenna and mount plate are designed, it is very easy to get
heavy to one side and tip the antenna over.
Hope this helps.
73 de,
Ian, NV4C

I have just submitted my order for my KX3. As part of the next step, I am
continuing my search for an antenna. At this point, I am leaning towards an
Alpha Antenna mag loop. Like some, I have HOA restrictions in my first and
second home and this somewhat limits me as to what I can put up. I have space
on my back deck as well as a terrace in my condo.
Can anyone provide feedback regarding an Alpha Antenna or possibly have any
additional suggestions that might be helpful.
Thanks
