Hi Nick,

I'm currently using my K2 QRP with the internal tuner and a few meters of
wire strung out the window. It's connected directly to the K2 via a
BNC-banana adapter like you do with your KX-1 and works OK for me, I even
made a few 160m QSO-s. I also do have something like a dipole cut for 7 MHz
that I feed with 2m of coax and tune this on 15m. Works really nice and the
ability to switch two antennas is great, I only wish that you could assign
one antenna output of the tuner as receive antenna (RANT).
