In the past few days I've started using a Flag Loop antenna (designed by WD8DSB). I supplement it by also using a National RF HF-DF bidirectional loop. The patterns on both have been confirmed by usi
Hi, You sir are a mind reader, I just started working on a FLAG for just this sort of setup-- portable use of a broadband antenna. I am happy to hear it is as broadband as you say... I will be taking
BTW: I am currently working on setting up a tinySA on the FLAG... Try it, it is really portable. The tinySA will mount right on the support pole for the FLAG. No computer, no SDR, just a box the size
Mike ~ I don't know how well the Flag Loop hears compared to a magnetic loop. But, both are usually used with preamps and attenuators - so that you can adjust the noise levels down to where the S-met
Dave ~ Adding a spectrum analyzer should be interesting. Getting it all configured for easy use in the field is the next logical step. I hope it is broadbanded. While the SWR measured 1.1 to 1 from 1
Hi Alan, Thanks for posting about my portable flag for direction finding. I was trying to stay silent on this post, but thought I would provide a link to a simple website I have that provides more in
I have a more reliable SA on my bench, I will be doing some compairs to the tinySA, although there is a fellow on YouTube that used a decent HP, and the tinySA is fairly decent if you watch input lev
