[Elecraft] EFHW

[K9MA]

I'd have to total it up, but I probably made close to 1,000 contacts 
with an  EFHW and KX1 last year.  The whole antenna system, including 
the 38 foot fishing pole and tuner, weighs about 1.5 pounds.  Of course, 
it doesn't work as well as a high, full-sized antenna, but if anyone can 
come up with one that works better and doesn't weigh more, I'd like to 
hear about it!
