Locked Re: FM loop antenna for nulling


 

TONY,

Instead of a Loop Antenna, try using a basic (Ready Made)
300 Ohm TV Twin Lead "FM" Folded Dipole Antenna.
(Cost about $3)

The FM Folded Dipole Antenna can be layed out Horizontally
or 'formed' around a Hula Hoop.

Then the FM Folded Dipole can be rotated for the best Null
of the unwanted FM Station, or for the best Peak Signal of
the wanted FM Station.

I posted this on the other group, but did not know if I was

too crazy here.

I wanted to know if there was any way to design a loop antenna for
the FM broadcast band (88-108 MHz) which would have the same
nulling
ability/technique as the Radio Shack AM loop or the Terk loop on
the
AM broadcast band. Another example would be comparable to the
Palomar
loops, or something I could construct myself. I want something
that
has the ability to null out the stronger stations in favor of the
more distant ones. I know this is a popular/common aspect with LW
&
AM broadcast antennas, but what about 88-108 MHz?
I am aware of an array which would consist of at least 2 Yagis,
but
do not have the space to implement/employ such. Again, the key is
nulling out the strong stations.

Does such a concept exist? I would like to null out some of the
semi-
local (roughly 40 miles away) FM stations to allow reception of
other
stations.

Please let me know, & thanks in advance.

Tony
