Gordon,

I am a brand new owner of a KX2, specifically purchased for POTA activations where I cannot just drive up and unload the ”big” rig (which happens to be a fairly small but heavy  FT-857D setup). I’ve had the KX2 with me on a recent trip to Florida and I activated three parks on SSB/PSK31. I used a SOTABEAMS 6m telescopic mast with a SOTABEAMS Bandhopper Midi. The ATU in the KX2 had no problems at all tuning the antenna. It’s a great POTA setup. Let me know when you’ll be out activating, I’ll be listening for you.
