I thought I'd update everyone on my post a few days ago, regarding
F/B ratio on my recently installed rotatable delta loop.
Originally I was getting a relatively small F/B. The coax was running
along the horiz element, back to the rotor, about an inch from the
antenna element itself. I relocated the coax, and hung it about 12-14
inches below the horiz element (except for the choke balun, as I
didn't want that swinging in the breeze). This improved the F/B by 6-
8 db.
