[Elecraft] Elecraft AX-1 Whip Antenna

[john at kk9a.com]

I'm curious about your pedestrian mobile statement.  What do you do with the
13 foot counterpoise, does it drag behind you when walking? I doubt that you
can make a QSO without it.  Also with the 13 foot counterpoise, what 20m
frequency is the AX1 resonant on?

Second-I want to hear from Dave AB7E in particular what antenna(s) you use
when you're operating in the field,and specifically when you can't set up a
wire; maybe no trees or a bare summit, or as Thomas K4SWL talks about-when
you really don't or can't throw up a wire (check out his blog on recent
operations in Canada). Or pedestrian mobile. So far I've seen nothing that
is as compact,lightweight  and easily packable as the AX1 or 2, and that's
important to me when  I'm hiking.
