Good Morning from Rural VA


 

Hi All,
Long time reader. I enjoy this group. First post.
My health is lacking. I walk with a cane. I will leave it at that. Antennas must must be low to the ground as I cannot climb or put up wire antennas to any sort of height.
I am very interested in setting up a broadband loop antenna to listen and log. Perhaps to use it as a second receiver.
Steve, AA7U has been helpful to me and I thank him. I decided to post here and learn.
I have read extensively in the files area and have looked at lots of pictures and read much about the rf amplifiers.
I can make most everything I will need, and am very experienced in building manhatten or SMD (yes I can still do that! :-) with my magnifiers.
I have, a scope, sig gen, DSA 815-TG, power supplys, VNWA/3E, and hako soldering equipment including the FR-301 (Handy for fixing radios!) and most all the other equipment as well. Meters, most PEAK tools (LCR DCA55,ESR70)

I would like to build my own things. I read this article on top of what was posted here and was impressed with it. I would like to get your feedback on this.


I am also interested in what Joe and Steve have done with amplifiers. I would prefer not to have to order from europe and make my own.
