Hi, Scott
While I am not an expert on horizontally-oriented loops (or any
loops, for that matter - hi), I have also been researching them and
have found a few web sites that have good designs. I guess I should
disclaim any connection with these websites and any responsibility
for the material they present. Having gotten that out of the way,
here are the websites that might be useful and I am sure there are
more (ARRL and W4RNL for example):
Great site - an antenna master
Good details
I hope this helps.
Happy Independence Day and 73,

Hey all. I had a few questions that I hope that some of you
may
be
able to answer. I am itching to put up a loop, mainly for the
low
noise feature that the loop has. I at minimum have 45 feet
across by
maybe 150 or so long to hang this thing. Further, height,
trees,
towers and blackberry vines are an issue. Anyone have
experience with
low hanging loops? Any information would be greatly
appreciated.

HELLO Scott, interesting about your antenna, what band do you
plan
on
using it on? I am experimenting with LOOP antennas for 160
meters,
do
the design on an antenna program on the computer...

thanks for the reply. I would love to cut it for 80 meters,
however, probably going to have to stick with 40 on up. I
understand about the cloudwarmer effect and the higher the better,
so I guess we will just have to play with it a bit. Are you aware
of any dummy proof ant programs on the internet that would help?
I
have played with the EZNEC demo program and I am not familar
enough
with that one to make it work. thanks again
