Re: Aziloop
Hi Bill ( and Dave) Bill has paid a good few bucks for the Azi-loop if its from UK, so wants it to work as advertised.( if not a knock off.) It should av a better f/b than that. But Bill remember

Re: Aziloop
If you are searching for nulls, I find a "shielded" 0.5-meter loop made of 0.5-inch copper tubing hard to beat. Five internal turns, the center of which is cut and brought out to a home brew and

Re: Aziloop
Hi Bill, I suggest you model your exact antenna and radial dimensions in eznec and check f/b at 2 degrees. Try optimising the f/b with a resistor 100-600 ohms in series with insulated radials on their

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
Hi Martin, Thanks for the infomation and advices. Thanks also for the recommend on "Chris Trask (fig.5)". I will look for the FETs. I have several pairs, but they all seem to have large Ciss. tnx &

Aziloop
I have just installed an Aziloop and I do not get good nulls - 10 -15 dB on 50 -100-mile ground wave signals, Loop is 13' on long side, 8' on short side and PVC mast is 15 feet. Radials are on the

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
Hi ?Mikek, The better IMD performance of the Trask circuit, means that it can be used with a larger antenna (one having greater self capacitance) such as a 1m whip. The coax transmission line forms

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
I have a question about the Trask push-pull amplifier. Doesn't it have a rather low input impedance to be connected to a probe antenna? Mikek

The AMRAD active antenna is based on Burhan's circuit. https://www.arrl.org/files/file/Technology/tis/info/pdf/0109031.pdf W1VD also has a version using a common J310 jfet.

Hi Fred, Thanks for the advice. I had gotten a Soviet KP901B about 20 years ago. I remembered it and tried to improvise. The radiater is a Jpanese brass coin with a hole. Indeed, it worked as an

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
Hi Martin, Thanks for the advice. I have some low noise audio FETs (2SK170 etc) that I got a long time ago. I thought could not use them for RF because of large Ciss. However, LTSPICE simulation to
