[Elecraft] Mfj whip for KX2 mobile

[Jim Nestor]

Waiting for my KX2. Plan to use for camping and stationary mobile.
Initially, the antenna for stationary mobile will be hamsticks (40 & 20m) mounted 
to roof rail on suv.

Thinking  about trying a 16-17' mfj whip on the roof rail mount. Should be a 1/4 wave on 20m.
With a couple of wire radials it should work better than a hamstick. I expect the KX2 ATU should
"Tune" it on 40 and maybe also work better than the hamstick.

Has anybody used one of the mfj whips with a KX2 or KX3?

BTW, for camping have a number of antenna options: endfed wires, dipoles, verticals supported from trees or 33' mast bungeed to the awning of travel trailer. Nothing beats camping and playing radio...
