[QRP-L] KX1 4 Band Ant, Canso Causeway Trip

Paul - VE1DY-2
A recent trip allowed me to try out my 4 band end fed antenna with the KX1.

Details of the portable set up can be found here:

Paul and All,

Great pictures!  I have to show my XYL--particularly the ones of the "high
seas"!  She loves the ocean.

Question!  Nothwithstanding the fact that the coil around your glass case
lowered your SWR, do you really think it made a big difference in results?
An SWR of 1.9 to 1 doesn't seem all that bad.

Thanks Dave,

I would say probably not, but I think the rig will be happier and I
know I was (hi)!
