Hello

I have been using the KX3 and  KXPA100 with a Jackite pole as a vertical 
off my deck.   I ran it with a single counterpoise using a 9:1 balun.  
Also direct, ie no balun, with 3 to 4 radials.
Surprisingly good results in very poor band conditions.  I have a choke 
on my coax close by my radio.

I've been thinking about trying a delta loop with the apex on the top of 
the Jackite, about 30' on each side.

Anyone try using a delta loop with the KX3&internal tuner? What about 
KXPA100 and internal tuner?  Any issues using the tuner?

The ATU's in both Elecraft units can tune anything, very fun to use.

Much Regards,
