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

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
