I have a favorite picknick bench which I use for my activities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Usually I bring my Elecraft K1 4-band transceiver, equipped with 40m, 30m, 20m and 17m. That gives me at least 2 contest-less bands. As antenna I use my Portable Loop Tuner as described in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pi4raz.nl\/razzies\/razzies201510.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">October 2015 issue<\/a> of the RAZzies magazine. I have 3 pieces of RG213 coax I can use for the loop: 1.6m, 3m and 5m in length. The 1.6m wire gives me 20-10m, the 3m wire covers 30-15m and the 5m wire supports 40-20m. I haven&#8217;t had one day that I was not able to make a QSO: the antenna works really great. So maybe we meet during summer, usually around QRP frequencies (7.030, 10.106, 14.060 or somewhere on 17m).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-86\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waarsenburg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/field.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"610\" height=\"813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waarsenburg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/field.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.waarsenburg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/field-400x533.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.waarsenburg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/field-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Portable Loop Tuner using the 3m wire<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now summer is starting, it&#8217;s time to pick up QRP working in the field.
