I received him on a resonant version of your version of the K9AY LF antenna with two loops nw/se and ne/sw orientation. Still building the transformers and preamp for the 'real' K9AY. Presently, I phase it with the other loop to cancel noise. My transmitter is back online as I raised a 20m tall vertical with 20m of top loading the other day. Need to do some work to lower the environmental losses by raising part of the loading inductance up. However, the system seems to work ok as locals report strong signals. 73 Scott VE7TIL jrusgrove@comcast.net wrote: > Scott > > Outstanding! Do you know his TX conditions?
