Do you think one could put a decent loop on a suburban lot
that is only 100 feet by 60 feet?   How big a loop and how high
do you suppose it might have to be?  I figure I could put something
up that is a total of, say, 250 feet around.   I thought that might just
get me on 80 meters, and I could use a tuner for some higher bands.
Using a 40 foot metal mast, I might be able to get it up that high at
a reasonable effort and expense.

Do-able?  Worth doing if so?

Whaddaya say?    ///  JHR - K8JHR  ///
