I have had my KX2 with the ATU for about 10 months and operate on 40m QRP SSB from various locations. Experimenting with different antennas I have experienced best results with a 58.5’ wire tossed about 25’ up a tree with a 16.5’ counterpoise. I ran the same length wire from my house to the workshop, grounded the shield side of the cable, and have seen similar results to the field setup.
Is there some engineering/design factor of the KX2 for this type of antenna setup? I am planning to setup a Dipole at home, but as a newbie am wondering if the “ideal” Ham Dipole can be expected to improve performance.
