Tom I have 50' of coax that I run from the shack to the living room where I take my KX3 and a small Power supply. I sit it on a TV table beside my recliner with a laptop running and work DX with it on SSB using the hand mic. One small matter I can only do that when the wife is gone but then I'm in real comfort for QRP action 8>)
