Operating a KX-3 via battery power, 5 watts max, is always a challenge. Matching that transceiver with the Military system makes field operation enjoyable and very easy. The antenna is very well made and easy to set up from the included bag.
I used several other antennas, mainly vertical whips or dipoles and this Military antenna gives me better sensitivity and I have logged more DX SSB with it running 5 watts than with any other antenna. The other major strength of this antenna is the outstanding customer service by the company. They return calls and offer great suggestions on how to get even better performance.
This has become my QRP and field antenna of choice and I cannot think of any cons when buying this antenna. If you want a dependable, easy to set up vertical for field operations, give this one a try. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
