If hams hadn't done that in the past we wouldn't have discovered the propagaton possibilities on HF (when we were banned above 100m in the 20's), still using AM etc... I just wanted to point out that one shouldn't expect too much from the radiation qualities of the loading coil. It makes sense to me that you keep the loading coil away from any objects that might absorb the magnetic field and - if that is not possible - shield the coil from this objects. 73, Rik ON7YD At 18:31 18/01/01 -0000, you wrote: >Mal, Rick etc. > >I am an amateur amateur, I experiment!
