Hi
¡°Spending a lot of money on large copper pipes for the TX
loop results in high Q, which causes very narrow bandwidth,
and limited power handling. Much better to make the loop
larger and just use wire for the conductor.¡±
Question..Where did you get that idea from?? Unless you talking about a full L loop for whatever frequency.ie 160 circumference for 160m??
As my large dia coper tubed tx mag loop with vac cap holds 1.5kw..( 160m)
No hope with wire as eff will be zero..
Asking as maybe mis understanding your reasoning.
