Anyone use the Comet HFJ350?

I recently posted on this antenna:

I’ve only used it a couple of times, but it did match easily when operating hand held from the KX2 with a short trailing ground wire.
My favourite antenna for HF quick activations would be the Diamond RHM8B. The reason is that it always uses the fully extended telescopic whip and is matched by tromboning the sliding loading coil. The Comet HFJ 350 is more compact but needs a bit more futzing to choose the correct tap and adjust the telescopic whip (which is further away than you can reach when you are holding the KX2).
