Locked 160 and 75 meter Magnectic loop antennas
I was wondering how much work has been done and would like to see some
discussion on Loop antennas for 75 meter and 160 meter band. I for one
have the most trouble with these two bands due things common for most
hams. No tall well spaced trees on my property. No huge type antennas,
or a way to put up long , very high wires. No huge towers to support any
of these either. I would like to reference two web locations that
discuss two type of loop antennas that seem to work very well. I plan on
making a ground mounted loop antenna for use just for 160 meters and 75
meters made out of 2" aluminum conduit with joints being welded
together and a correct size vacuum variable capacitor. see listed links.

Nice read with plenty of info, been reading up on mag loops for quite a while now and never come across that site, thanks for posting the link very interesting indeed, would love to have a loop of that size but think it would create some serious problems with the local anti radio/antenna brigade I have surrounding me so a loft mounted frame antenna loop for 40 and 80 will be the next project, 160 will just have to wait worst luck.
