[Elecraft] Fine tuning AF1

[Mike Weir]

Using the AF1 along with my Elecraft KX1 and the Miracle whip antenna I found the AF1 while transmitting with the KX1 at 1.2 watts was being affected by the RF from the rig. When I used the auto tuner on the KX1 with the AF1 turned on I would hear buzzing and clicking in my ear buds. Also seemed when transmitting the AF1 was picking up RF as I could hear hash in my ear buds along with the CW tone. At home I used my attic DX-EE antenna along with the KX1 and AF1 did not have any issues. Any ideas for the portable operations?? I have pictures of the setup on my blog if that may help with ideas?
