My main portable station is a HB1B or a EK1B that I use for 17m and a Inv Vee. I got a ZM2 tuner and I am using a Palm paddle which is fine for CW ops.
I also use a HB end fed for 20m as well as vertical wires for experimentations.
CW QRP is a lot of fun. Now, I am not very active portable during our winters..

Ok, I have the wonder-loop too now: I'll compare them and let you know . 8)
However, the wonder-loop is not a magnetic loop: it's a simple tunable compact loop, an electrical antenna system just like the wide-bander. ::)

I use K2/10 internal batt and hyendfed for 20meters. 73' PD5L

In a campground, I set-up the KX-3 on a picnic table, 7AH gell cell, and use a 20M inverted vee suspended by a 28ft flag pole lashed to the ladder that goes to the roof of my 5th wheel trailer. I have tuned the antenna to resonance so a tuner is not required.
I am looking for a smaller sized qrp rig like a KX-1 with an internal tuner.
