The YL and I had a good day at the National Zoo in Wash. DC .... Set up the KX1 in the Parking Lot with a 40 meter Ham Stick and made contacts with the KX1. I was excited about that because I have made very few contacts in the past with the KX1.
I have not hooked any cables up to the car battery yet but a few months ago John Harper had told me about the 11.1 V. LiPoly battery and used it today. The KX1 was putting out 3.5-4 watts so that made it pretty easy to have some contacts. We parked by an Island of grass under a shady tree and set up our 2 folding chairs with a shelf on the right side of the chair so that made operating a breeze. The Antenna was in the clear and set up in the center of the rear deck of our Impala.
