Hi Guys, I was reading Feb. CQ Magazine and saw the article on the Isotron antennas. Quoting: *--near-dipole performance--*. Now has anyone had any experience with the Isotron, especially the 160M ve

Just when we thought the "don't believe everything you read in an ad" thread was over! To give real near-dipole field strength performance, it would have to be at least 1/4 wavelength long unless th

I used an Isotron 160 meter antenna and was able to work DX up to 1,000 miles away, but needed a different rx antenna as they have a Q which is a killer on QRN- And while I got in the log, I was neve

The antennas were called something like "L'il Giant" and actually made a dipole into a small space by folding it up. This introduces imductive loading so the inventor had to cut and try to get the ri

Actually the real humor is at: http://www.isotronantennas.com/isohow.htm The text claims Isotron's "work so well" because they have "more area than a 1/2 wl dipole". If I had two slices of bread I c

I agree. However, careful reading of the Isotron page http://www.isotronantennas.com/isohow.htm revealed no claim of gain or radiation efficiency. Replace the word "Isotrons" with "Dummy Loads" and

Ignoring all the misstatements about capture area (capture area really has nothing to do with physical size, it is a function of gain and wavelength), they do make a gain claim. "THE PERFORMANCE - I

You may be reading in something that is not there. No mention of radiating, just transmitting. I know it's a pretty thin line, but a sharp lawyer could probably convince a jury it's not the same as r

good RX in a noise city? I wouldn't count on that Hector. Most of the radiation from the Isopole system is radiation from the coax shield. If there is any noise near the house, it will probably be w

You can transmit into a dummy load, but the amount of resultant radiating will not likely bag many contacts. :) 73, Keith NM5G radiating. Clinton word parsing? "Depends what your definition of is is.

Brett, A loop in the nearfield does not show radiation. A small loop in the nearfield almost exclusively shows the magnetic induction field. Near any antenna the induction fields are the dominant fi
