[Elecraft] WA3WSJ Portable Antennas

[Jim Brown]

Wow -- there are some VERY nice packages on your webpage, Ed. I particularly like the 
ones utilizing the telescoping pole. How does your pole differ from the DK9SQ pole?  I 
see that it is shorter. 

Our ham club held our annual QRP night a week or so ago, where a half dozen or so of us 
each set up a rig and antenna. I used my K2/100 (at 5 w) and KAT100 tuner with a 
DK9SQ pole to support a quasi-vertical wire that worked quite well on 40, 30, and 17m. 
Your rig would certainly make it work even better.  I could have loaded it on 20 by playing 
with the length of the driven element, but your rig would have made it even easier. 

Bravo!
