I ordered a FT-140-43 toroid and some #28 enamel wire from Amidon to build a match transformer. Hopefully I will get it by Monday since I am leaving for PJ4 on Tuesday morning. I have a FT-240-43 lay

I'm wondering if anyone has ever built or modeled a multi-turn flag or pennant antenna. I'm thinking maybe an odd number of turns with the resistor in the middle of the middle turn. Thanks. --Art Del

Art, I have tried it (what the heck, why not?). Using a 2m x 2m loop, 1m above average ground: The F/B (better than 25 dB) and RDF (7.8 dB) are the same as a single turn loop. Gain is higher by 2 dB

I was wondering whether it might produce a narrower pattern in the front, or a deeper null off the back, or maybe even both. But indications from two people who have either modeled it or built it are

If you want that you can look at the Waller versions which stack two antennas. N4IS is the guru. But everyone is describing a very small version of the terminated loops here. 2 by 2 meters is crazy s

They have perfect cardiod patterns just like the full sized models BUT negative 45 db "gain" is fairly useless for DX" Working with antennas with low gain is a huge challenger however 100% possible.

I've used a variety of loops, from a small rotatable coax diamond to my present receiving antenna, a large 14 x 29 ft flag. It is more useful to think of these antennas as providing directivity, not

Agreed fully. But the very low output antennas usually go hand in hand with small suburban or non rural environs and thus very noisy. To achieve a useful sn ratio with all the noise and low output is

My small city lot doesn't offer the luxury of room for large, let alone multiple low band receive antennas. In fact, the lot is so small that ground mounted antennas like the K9AY are impossible. The
