"Great" and "QRP" in the same sentence is an oxymoron if QRP implies portable packed in by a human. [:-) About the "best" I've found for other than Class 4 mountaineering is a small mag loop. I use an Alexloop [a little pricey] but they are easy to build for very little expense. If you do choose to build one:

1. Voltages/Circulating currents can be surprisingly high in loops, even at QRP.

2. Use a capacitor with a 10:1 reduction on the shaft. They get real touchy on 20 and below.

Can Anyone recommended a great QRP Antenna for KX3


Going to Hawaii with KX3 from high rise Hotels and some Sandy Beaches
that is lightweight, easy to deploy, carry on Airlines or packed into luggage.


Any Portable Poles to recommend for End Fed Antenna's


My MFJ-1920 pole is 3.8ft when collapsed and extends to 33 feet
but when Island Hopping, 3.8ft does not qualify as a Carry On due to it's length
So hit with extra baggage fee's


Maybe a Fishing pole that is on sections that not as long, when collapsed
would be the Answer, some 14ft to 17 feet Crappie Fishing poles only
breakdown to 46inches to 48inches, about the collapsed length of my
MFJ-1910 fiberglass telescopic mast
