Re: FW: AirSpy YouLoop-2t with Nooelec Lana HF
Ok, but I think, the RSP1A you mentioned in your starting post also has 50 Ohm input impedance like the Airspy HF+ Discovery.
So: comparing apples? ;-)

Hi Dirk,
Unfortunately, my receiver is RSP1A and I cannot judge how commercial AirSpy Moebius antenna performs with Airspy HF+ Discovery that has a better parameters.
However, I crossed article that

Hi Martin,
Thanks for a prompt response.
I have been using the commercial made by Aispy Moebius passive anteenna. As you know, this antenna gets supplied with RG402 1 meter coaxial cable limbs

As you are probably aware, I'm not a great fan of the Youloop, but as an experiment you could try a single unscreened loop of wire, with the same circumference as the Youloop, but connected between

Re: FW: AirSpy YouLoop-2t with Nooelec Lana HF
With Youloop, without any LNA and with Airspy HF+ Discovery the reception is very good from VLF up to the lower VHF range. But I never tried a 4:1 or 8:1 balun instead of the Youloop's built in

Not by so much, perhaps 5%, from memory Owen Duffy has some calculations somewhere.
Inductance is slightly higher too.
Aluminium ducting tape is a definite NO from me.
