Re: Loop Antenna Prices

No risk in there, just a zip with a bunch of JPEG images inside. The warning probably comes from the fact that the link is http:// and not https:// (that is, the file is sent to the browser

Re: Loop Antenna Prices
Yes, I do get it. But the DIY option is always less expensive. I am fortunate in that I've been home brewing since my early SWL days at age 8 and upward. All my test equipment is HP or Agilent. I have

Hi Tom, I have not compared as I have no other loop amplifiers here besides the M0AYF. But from South-Central Oregon, I consistently receive VLF signals from WWVB, the Jim Creek WA naval station, and

Re: Transmit Loop?
Hello Grady, Monday, January 10, 2022 I have received some really strong signals on 160 meters from people using a small transmitting loop. I would imagine they are tuning with a BIG vacuum capacitor

* Very similar to an issue I have here, does it sound like a whirring noise if you listen to it? Mine runs for perhaps 20 minutes then 'has a rest' and may restart after 10 minutes or often longer. *
