Andy Yes, I am here, and 'loops v verticals' is a very good idea for a project. I am now formally retired from Academe, but ironically immediately have been asked back to continue some activities. An
For those that do not know. Research around Europe has shown that VERTICALS are the only antennas suitable for Transmitting on LF. Loops are fine for Receiving, little or large but the bigger the bet
Hmmmm broadcasters want omni coverage so a loop really wouldnt work in this application however for Amateur work they would appear to work quite well,, The proof is in the pudding where a TX at 1 wat

I view of the continuing arguments about this issue, is there anyone who knows, or knows someone, with the mathmatical understanding of antenna theory as well as the common sense, to come up with a p

The type of environment is an essential part of the equation and so results in different environments are particularly of interest. This is exactly the crux of the matter. Mathematically, for a give
Hi All At least this topic has injected some interest into the LF scene. LF activity around Europe has virtually died, in fact at present it is a dead duck. My comparison between loops and verticals
No YOU want coverage in all directions. All antennas have disadvantages. Chill out Mal. Prozaq does wonders for symtoms like this. LOL!!! Later, Mike WE0H hamilton mal wrote: -- Original Message -- F
Actually, Mal, 76 Amps (if that is the true figure) may be accomodated with good materials and equally good engineering practice. However, the argument then becomes a debate about economics and retur

Yes, well Brian, The "most of us" I should have identified, I agree, are those who have a soldering iron almost as close (closer?) than a microphone or key! However we mustn't be that politically cor

Hi All Vernal and Steve agree with my observations that a large vertical is a better RX antenna in a quiet environment. My location like theirs is out in the country and quiet and suitable for a vert
Hi All Considering RX only some around EU are getting good results with DX reception using the small mini vertical and others seemingly using small loops. Of the two I wonder which is better. I expec
