Having had my Elecraft KX3 ultra-portable radio for a few months now, I felt it was high time to take it out into the field. In particular I was curious to see how it would perform with my Alexloop magnetic loop antenna. This antenna covers 40m-10m, and while it clearly isn’t going to compete against a dipole, it is very quick and easy to set up, and should normally give reasonable performance on the higher bands at least.
