Cool. I'm getting close to finishing my W1 and putting it in a W8FGU
enclosure. How do the KX1 power readings compare to the W1 readings?

While fooling with the KX1 and BuddiPole on the deck on a balmy
evening, I discovered that if I remove the tilt stand on Dave's
enclosure [easy, it's fastened with velcro], a double male BNC will
couple the wattmeter to the KX1 and the combination lays flat on
the table. I can tune the BP with the W1, making it unnecessary to
carry the antenna analyzer along on field expeditions. All in all,
a nifty little arrangement.

PS: Enough BNC adapters and I could probably do something similar
with my K2 :-)
