I finished the W1 computing wattmeter, and put it in W8FGU's nifty polycarbonate enclosure. It was an easy build, some tidbits and links can be found at www.foothill.net/~andreaj/Ham45.htm

While fooling with the KX1 and BuddiPole on the deck on a balmy evening, I discovered that if I remove the tilt stand on Dave's enclosure [easy, it's fastened with velcro], a double male BNC will couple the wattmeter to the KX1 and the combination lays flat on the table. I can tune the BP with the W1, making it unnecessary to carry the antenna analyzer along on field expeditions. All in all, a nifty little arrangement.

PS: Enough BNC adapters and I could probably do something similar with my K2 :-)
