[Elecraft] KX1 #1403 Antenna Project

[Alexandra Carter]

Well, it's probably the Pac-12. Add 1-2 more of those sections to the  
part below the coil, use plenty of radials, and try something I saw  
someone set up, they just use the 40m coil with a jumper with an E-Z  
Hook on it to select turns for higher bands. It's a nice antenna! 73
