Howdy William...

I use the AXE with the KH1 for 40m with the 32ft counterpoise from the
AXE kit. I am able to get a good enough match to operate on 40m and have
made POTA contacts with that setup.

When I move to the higher bands, I just leave the long counterpoise
connected. The KH1 doesn't mind and matches the higher bands fine.

I have not kept notes on my matched SWR readings, but I should. I'm
usually wanting to get the activation moving and get it done. Maybe I
should just take the little rig out in the front yard and play a little. ;)

[Elecraft] AX1 40 meter coil with KH1

2024-03-05 Thread William Combs via Elecraft
I was wondering if the 40 meter coil from the AX1 could be used with the KH1. 
Don’t know if it would connect to the KH1. But now with the new right angle 
connector (not yet released), it would seen more likely to be a possibility. Or 
not?
