The “PIXIE KIT” is the talk of the town in almost every Ham Radio forum
Hams talk it up and some talk it down, that’s the fun of the Pixie Kit. Despite its small size and DC receiver limitations, it is capable of working
several hundred miles when connected to a good 40-meter antenna.
An adapter to connect Pixie to your feed line can be purchased at the link below.

DIY Radio 40M CW Shortwave Transmitter Kit Receiver
This kit is a classic low-power transceiver
This is a very small volume of simple 40-meter band micro-power amplitude telegraph transceiver that uses a 9V square battery.
The reception is good, highly readable code which is very desirable among ham radio operators
The confidential achieve better results, set the antenna performance can not be less than the full length of the horizontal half-wave dipole antenna, in conjunction with the use of Simple Barron, antennas should be kept away from sources of interference, such as fluorescent lights, computer monitors, switching power supplies and other equipment as much as possible with the coaxial cable as feeders to reduce possible interference received, as a small selection of the broadcast interference morning or late at night listening to get the best results to listen to SSB and CW signals signal.
