Has anyone installed a Flag antenna over a radial field? What was the flag height above ground? Did it hear well and have a good front to back? If poor performance, did de-tuning the transmit antenna

Hi Bruce, I can't speak to a flag but I had a W2UP rotatable loop that I turned with a small TV rotor and one of your transformers. It worked great for about year until I ran 4 or 5 radials out to wi

Hi Chet, Think the closer radials were coupling transmit tower signals to the loop. Detuning the transmit antenna may also have fixed the problem. I am trying to find out how much the loops hear from

Hi Bruce, I'm using 3 small Pennant RX antennas (51.6% the size of full size pennants), one pointing 40 degrees, one pointing 160 degrees, and one pointing 300 degrees (sharing the same feedpoint). O

I found it very educational when setting up my K9AY loop, to listen to the PT0S pileups. It's what convinced me that I had done it "right" in building the K9AY. Remote direction selection on the ante

Hi Don, Congratulations on your nice set up and your new height above ground. ( I now have my receiving Delta receiving antenna up to easily drive the car under. hi) Thank you for the wealth of infor

On 80 meters wonder if you, at low TX power, have checked the RF at the end of your radials with a field strength meters ? Do you have a perimeter wire around the ends of you radials ? Fellows, This

Thanks to all the replies from actual "ground independent loop" antenna users. There are many reduced lot size users who are working a lot of DX and hearing quite well. My questions were to find what

I use a reduced size flag (50%) antenna about 7 feet above the ground mounted on our deck right above our pool (comes down in the summer so we can swim) and I use a KB-5 for the feed line transformer
