Locked Loop for a Kenwood R-1000


bongo432002
 

Greeting folks..first timer here.Would it be a good idea to use a loop
antenna for a Kenwood R-1000? It's going to be right in front of a
window facing south and I live in a mobile home.I'm going to sometime
soon put up a longwire about 40'long and 10'high(best I can do)but I
would like to have them both just to have 2 antennas.I also have a
DX-302 that was given to me.My choices are the
DE31MS..MFJ-1020C..MFJ-1020.I'm sure that ya'll know about the MFJ's
and you can google the DE31MS to see what it looks like.Money's an
issue here people and the wife is allready looking at me funny.100
bucks tops.About the longwire..I'm going to wrap the coax around a
homemade 'dogbone'and solder the shield to one wire and then the
centerline to the other then use some weather seal on the
connections.Would it be better to use a balum at the connection point
instead.Any feedback would be great.Thanks and hope to be a regular.
