Hi Wayne.
i am going to be up on Pikes Peak for field day, hiking the trail....
It should be great... i will have my KX1 along too...
i have my whip attached to a thin board, (a free paint stirrer from H. Depot).
The thin board goes in my rear pocket and i usually wear a vest and the 
antenna
goes out the arm hole... That keeps it standing pretty straight.
When it is to warm for the vest,  i just use a belt around my neck/under my 
arm, like a shoulder holster, to hold the middle part of the whip.
The KX1 has a 2 foot single wire (no coax) going to the whip.
13 foot drag wire on 20M.
More fun with the KX1
