I'm looking to take my K2 (10 watt) on holidays where we will be staying at
a 3-story lodge high atop a bluff overlooking the ocean. The lodge is
surrounded on 3 sides by some tall trees. The roof of the lodge has a table
that I can operate from. I haven't seen the location first-hand, but I
assume I can throw some wire from the roof into the trees. I have a 1 to 1
balun available and some lengths of "disposable" wire (about 50 - 75 ft)
that I can devote to the project. My K2 has the KAT2 ATU built in. I don't
want to spend any money on this, so a commercial antenna system is out.
Any ideas on the best configuration to use? Should it be a simple long wire?
Should I use the balun between the radio and the antenna? What about a
ground system?
Thanks
Dave White
