Hi MF
 
Probably not 2mW ERP Stefan ;-)
 
Have to reconfigure my U3 but rea= lly don't know which ERP I'm getting right now
The PA outputs 60V RMS under 50Oh= m load, but the loop is not an ideal load and I can tune it
to about 80V RMS. When detuned, R= MS runs up to >>100V and PA gets into problems
 
I tried to get loop performance u= sing Andy G4JNT excel and this is what I got
&= nbsp;
Probably many things wrong there<= /font>
What I use is a 70m perimete= r loop made from RG59 coax (braid and inner shorted on ends) but not a roun= d circle
The resonate cap is very close to= what I need to tuneit. So the "equivalent" round loop diameter s= hould be 21m 
Go figure ! :-)
 
One detail to mention:
Yesterday, it rained. Not very usual here and st= ill not tested the loop with this Tx power and with wet terrace
It seems to me that my signals was better than b= efore. Could the wet terrace worked as a kind of reflector or=
re-shapped the radiation diagram of the horizont= al loop making it more efficient for Dx ??
 
The loop is not equidistant from terrace but kee= ps about 3 to 4 meter high, and just 1m on the feeding point

Hi Luis,

Ooh, very well! I'm glad that i received you the first time! Is it really 2= mW ERP?
Oh and BTW it was in WSPR, the super mode!!!! ;-)
