My K1 with atu was just recently completed. Like you, I have plans for
portable ops.
So far, I have only ventured out into the back yard with various wires flung
over the trees, hung from the second floor balcony, etc.
The antenna showing the best promise is the classic end-fed half wave Zepp.
Geez!
Please excuse the major typo.
The twinlead is indeed a 1/4 wave - not 1/2 wave!!

I'm interested in using portable end-fed halfwave antennas when I'm
out camping. I have a Norcal BLT tuner that is a absorptive Z-match
type, suitable for this type of high-impedance tuning and loading.
I'm finishing my build of a K2

I've used an end fed dipole (i.e. half wave wire) a lot. I'm currently using
an end fed 80 meter dipole in my fixed-station setup

I'm finishing my build of a K2 right now, just about to add an
internal tuner to it,
board inside the KX1 case.
