I worked all over the country on 10 and 15 meters recently using a large metal window frame (5' x 8' picture window) as the antenna. I used alligator clips directly from the KX3 to two spots on the frame, experimenting with spacing. This is not described in the literature, but it worked. The ATU tuned up the window frame to ~1.0:1 on 20-6 meters.
