Subject: Re: LF: Static

Maybe you or Granny next door have some of those noisy lamps in the house? My loops are always quieter than my vertical.

 

Like I said the static QRN is from  storms and NOT local. I do not have any local noise problems since I live out in the country and there are no overhead electrical or telephone lines. The static QRN is the same on the resonated 80m loop and the resonated vertical.

You have the wrong end of the stick. I am discussing electrical storms and lot local issues.

The QRN static is still bad on 137khz and 160 metres. Receiving 137 Khz signals on my 80 metre loop suffers just the same as my vertical. Both produce the same level of static. The theory about loop advantage over a vertical is not correct.

A very small loop might be different. I have never used one so do not know. Trying to DX last night on 160 was a problem.
