actually 160 Kc is being used in the USA but with sever restrictions ONLY
a 50 ft antenna and that includes feed line and a 1 Watt output power. We
/I am looking forward to our getting full use down there at 137 and
perhaps at 160 also, from what I have seen your antenna plans will be
small but should work. I saw the note on here that U need a -30 DB gain
antenna before things began to work Hi. I believe that I have seen sizes
like yours that will work, I would check with others on using a ferrite
for a loading coil, I believe The coil needs to have as little loss as
possible. I dont have the RSGB LF book but will be getting one at the
York Pa. Springfest in 2 weeks. To me a loading coil needs to have as
high a Q as U can provide, But I have no experience Yet and advice is
cheap.
