Juan,

For 40 meters and above, I would suggest the antenna and counterpoise
recommended in the KXAT1 manual - 24 to 28 foot radiator, 16 foot
counterpoise.
Sorry, but I do not have the conversion to metric handy.

73,
Don W3FPR

Conversion to metric is at your browsers finger tip: go to google.com
and enter "28 feet in meter".

As a side note, Google will also convert currencies for you: "249 EUR in USD".
