portable antenna

[John W2XS]

I used the no-counterpoise antenna with my KX1.  It matched OK but I could
not get full power output with that antenna.  The seller also had the same
experience with his KX1.  His K1 did not seem to have that problem.

All in all, I still prefer the twinlead-center-fed 40m inverted vee, BL1
balun (4 to 1), and the Jackite 28' pole for portable operation.

What you describe is an effective, easily transported antenna.
You can't get much simpler than this.
