Lessons Learned - TV 'type' Coax Cable [Shielded] SWL Loop Antennas {RHF}
MK & TELAMON,
My reason for stating that the performance was 'poor'
had to do with many small problems:
* Learning Curve - It was my first Coax Cable [Shielded]
Loop Antenna.
* Questionable

Re: Homebrew Butterfly capacitor, 12,000 volts!
I got the copper sheet metal at a local sheet metal shop. It was 4
3/4 inches wide by 8 feet long and I used 5 feet of it for my
capacitor. I gave $6 for it. It was in a rack with other bits and

Request for suggestions
Folks (warning - greenhorn alert) can anyone help out with designs and
suggestions for a Tx loop for HF, say 40m to 20m or more?
Also how do I calculate the capacitance needed for a specific small

Re: Request for suggestions on 3.8 mHz receiving loop design
Thank you for the reply. I perhaps should have explained that this
antenna would be the first tool used to get started on the hunt for
the source of the noise. It would head me in the

Re: Homebrew Butterfly capacitor, 12,000 volts!
I just took a moment to look at your great work on this butterfly
capacitor.
I'm curious if you could give an estimate on what your materials cost
were. I'm trying to determine if this is the route

Re: Request for suggestions on 3.8 mHz receiving loop design
You do not want to use a Magloop to try and DF power
line noise, it won't work! A Magnetic loop is immune
to power line generated noise. You can't DF power line
noise at all. When you have a high

Welcome! I only joined a few weeks ago myself. So for

transmitting Magloop go to the photo section and look

I read with great interest your email describing your antennas, also read GreerTech
Articles.
I think you have made a nice job, also by the detailed description on how to build it.

Using a Rotor & Pre-Amp with a TV 'type' Coax Cable [Shielded] Loop Antennas
BJ,
It is my understanding that the Coax Cable Lead-in-Line
can not be to long. If as you say, you used good
construction techniques and Weather Proofed everything
then it should work OK

Request for suggestions on 3.8 mHz receiving loop design
My plan is to build a loop antenna to use at a fixed location to get
a DF fix on local power line noise sources. As a secondary benefit,
I would use it as an alternative receiving antenna in the
