Bill, What was the length of the radials?

I found the best performance was with the AX1 on a table top tripod on a picnic table with 2 resonant radials. The AX1 was about 1 S-unit down compared to the bigger antenna over a 22 mile ocean path. During these times of low critical frequency short paths are dead and the lower radiation angle of the vertical is often better than a low dipole/Inv-V. I find the AX1 most convenient for quick deployments.
