Dear Hugh, Gary, LF Group, I have used basically 2 methods to measure the loss resistance of an antenna. First is a straightforward "noise bridge" type of impedance measurement where the impedance of
Hi Hugh and Gary, If you have a 136kHz TX it's rather easy : measure the antenna current and the TX output voltage, R = U/I. The calculated R is the total loss resistance + radiation resistance, but
Hi Hugh, Not a dumb question if you don't know the answer. I would also like to know how to measure the earth resistance or series loss resistance of my antenna when it is finally completed and also

Hi Alan and group, thanks for the fb report and pics about my tests and QSO with OH1BS on 137.0kHz yesterday night. Though I normaly really dislike the cold weather (as does my 17-year-old Golf Diese
