I am very interested in trying to understand how this thing is
radiating, to be honest, given how low the loop is where it is fed by
the vertical, and its close proximity to the gable end of the
bungalow, I was not expecting it work at all well. What would happen
if I un-strapped the bottom of the ladderline and tried to feed the
loop as if it were still my HF loop? Could it be loaded like that?
