[Elecraft] New antenna works!

Nice Kevin!

I am looking forward to the Elecraft CW net that you host on Sunday to see if there is any difference.
Currently I'm using a similar setup at my QTH.   I really enjoy this simple but effective antenna with my Kx3 and Kxpa. 

Much Regards,

I just got done bushwhacking my new antenna up.  Three 1/4 wavelength legs cut for 7100 kHz.  It's working as a 1/4 wave vertical with a ground plane of the two legs.  I turned on my K3 and checked 40 meters. Only W1AW currently.  But the new antenna matches on 20 meters too.  So I scanned around and heard N7CQR running stations at 579.  I waited my turn and logged Dan as the first for the new antenna.  I'm sure he is running either a KX3 or KX2.  He didn't mention which.  So, new antenna works Elecraft rigs just fine.  Plus I knew who it was halfway through his call :)  He is calling CQ SOTA on 14061.5 kHz if you need another mountain in your log.

    73 & GL,
