That is it! Thanks much.
I am also going to use it for some rx antennas.

Probably one of the sizes of “Toughcoat Silky” from The Wireman and other
suppliers. This is the 26 AWG wire. I use this for my non-resonant SOTA
antennas.

Ha! I did the same thing last night only with slightly parameters:
0.2 inch diameter 4 ft. rod (average diameter of AX1?) with the base 5
ft above average ground. Counterpoise (#18 wire) drops 4 ft from the
feed point then trails out 9 ft to about 2 inches above ground. The base
loading
I do a similar evaluation of antenna combinations (random wire with/without
9:1) but instead of using different call signs, I move one khz away and
record results that way with RBN.

Folks:
I think there was a little note in the KX2 bundle about the type of wire
that is used in the counterpoise wires shipped with the KX2. However, I am
unable to locate it.
I think it had "slick" in its name.
Thanks,

I modeled something similar to an AX1 with EZNEC last night. I used a
base loaded 4' length of 1/2 inch diameter tubing for the whip, a
roughly 10 uH coil with a Q of 200 (25 turns, 1.5" diameter, 3" length),
and a 13 foot #14 counterpoise wire. It was oriented vertically with
the bottom
I moved 400 miles north from FL to NC this past weekend and I'm now in a
condo.
I'm curious if anyone has used the AX-1 in an apartment (upstairs) setting?
How did you deploy the conterpoise? How does it work compared to an outdoor
deployment?
I will be using it with my IC-705 and the MAT-705
Do you think you would get the same results on receive as you would on
transmit? I have found in my playing around that yes and 10 is likely a X one
or a X to work best if the counterpoise is also hanging vertically below it,
but I have never ever ever been in a situation where the antenna
I have used my AX2 both ways, and I have never found it to be advantageous to
use that antenna without a counterpoise.

Hi Dave,
I think that's a proper comparison in a physics sense, but I don't think it
