[Elecraft] KX1 possible antenna

Tue Dec 2 22:07:01 2003

I also picked one up today and it's reel is the same size as the Sony =
earbud
case with my earbuds.  Took it to the Wisconsin Experimental Radio Assn.
Christmas party tonight along with the KX1 and I think the boys in Aptos
will see a couple orders in the next 24 hours.  Also the RS antenna has =
an
adapter if you want to go to a telescoping whip antenna on a radio to
connect the long wire....really neat for 9.95....

I picked up 3 of the RS ones this am (radiator and two radials).  They=20
have a mini-plug on the end to plug into RS (aka Sangean)  SWL radios

The reels are very small (abt 1/4" thick) not like the ones in the=20
commercial antenna nor the ones used for clothing lines for camping.
