Hello Jan-Martin and the list,

1/100 for the coupling aera ratio seem to be good indeed Jan-Martin, i will try.

Thanks for the info.

A little question: is that possible to couple little loops like VHF yagis with

delays lines and hybrid mixers? Maybe a stupid question... just coming...

Hi

I got to the conclusion that the coupling loops should have an area of 1/100's the tuned loop.
Note that some suggest using tuning capacitor for the loop. My loop tuning is so sharp - it is 25dB variation from 136-138.8kHz, so the only way out is to use varicap tuning
