I took my KX2 out for a late day POTA hike. I had my Bioenno battery with me, but used the internal battery in the KX2. I used a 49:1 EFHW cut for 10-40. 3 contacts in Spain and one in England. 4000 miles!
The antenna was a tall inverted V with the peak about 35 feet. Probably not good for NVIS in this configuration. Humidy was high and the bugs were bad.
Enjoy.
