[Elecraft] Why did I purchase this antenna for the KX3?

[Mel Farrer]

Didn't I see an allband DC to Daylight portable antenna for sale in the 60-70's.  It did infact radiate, but oh my the eff numbers were that of a dummy load.  You can't fool mother nature and physics.

I sincerely hope nobody takes you seriously.  It may radiate something, 
but the manufacturer's claims for this antenna are simply ridiculous.
