I am taking a pair of 1251's on my camping and portable 
trips. One to tune the random length end fed wire antenna 
and the other one to tune the counterpoise. Tuning the 
counterpoise really improves results. The 1251 is a high 
quality unit (variable inductor employing silver wire seems 
very efficient).
