Re: Reasonable size of an AziLoop?
Thanks Guy,
I know your and Walt's ambitions for AM-DX, your solution is already very perfect. I can see that the size (one meter up or down) will be a very good option, also the self-supporting

The J-310 would be a much better choice.

Re: Reasonable size of an AziLoop?
Hi Christoph,
I use 16m (50ft) circumference (W=20ft, top H=15ft, bottom H=4ft) .? I decided on this size for 9dB or 10dB noise over-ride from the antenna on 160m. using only 4 x 3.5m elevated

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
With todays knowledge, the usage of a MOSFETs in the front stage of an active e-field impedance converter is not really a good idea. Even if some professional active-monopoles like the Eastern German

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
Hi Hisami,
The circuit and principles shown in the article are valid, but the reasoning behind them is now somewhat dated. The use of a power FET for this purpose was "state of the Art" at the time

Re: "active antenna preamplifiers" in ham radio May 1986
Hi Vojtech,
Thanks for the reply.
"neutralisation" is a nostalgic word.
I hadn't been aware for years.
It filled few pieces of the puzzle.
Thanks also for the explanation of the traps.

Hi Christoph,
The image you uploaded from Dave's excellent presentation actually shows a circumference of 13.8m; close, but not quite the 15m you mentioned.

Re: TX protection on RX Loop
Addendum: I am more inclined to trust IN3OTD's data because there isn't much opportunity to screw up a S21 measurement on a VNA. However, the Cedola et al's time domain measurement (OCVD) has more

I'd suggest you check the archives.
Personally, I don't want to tune the loop every time I chase something

Re: Why not a resonant loop?
I have made several similar loops for BCB and NDB work. I wind the loop to about 330uH and use a BB112 Variactor to? resonate it, fed from a 0-10V Bias-Tee (indoors) . Very sharp / hi-Q and nothing

Re: Why not a resonant loop?
I like tuned loop antennas for AM BCB as well as for NDB chasing. I have a 45 inch on a side box 8 turn loop wound with
#12 magnet wire and also use it as a crystal radio set. A good tuning capacitor
