Lightweight, rapid deployment, easy to setup
I've been using the Chameleon P-LOOP 2.0 since Mid-way 2017. I use it with a Yaesu ft-817nd as a lightweight backpack portable kit for QRP adventures. I also own the original P-LOOP, and I'm happy to say the P-LOOP 2.0 is smaller, lighter, and breaks down for easy packing.<br />The P-LOOP 2.0 functions from 40-10m bands, handles 25 watts SSB, and is designed as a modular system, having shared accessories with chameleons F Loop 2.0.<br /><br />I chose the P-LOOP 2.0 because of its build quality, and modularity. As a rapid deployment system, it's a balance of easy deployment, and good performance. One of the accessories you'll definitely want to get is the booster kit. The booster kit increases the diameter of the P-LOOP 2.0 or F-LOOP 2.0 main loop, raising the efficiency of these antenna systems. This is my preferred configuration. So I use the P-LOOP 2.0, the booster kit, the lightweight tripod and my FT-817ND, and still have room in my pack for other things.<br /><br />So far I've worked 27 countries with PSK31, and 14 countries with FT8, but I only started short time ago. All those countries were worked qrp with 5 Watts or less.<br />So much more I could say about this antenna but I'll leave it here. If you need a 40-10M antenna to travel with, without taking up all the space or carrying a lot of weight, an 817 or kx2 with the P-LOOP 2.0, would make a good set.<br /><br />73
