Gentlemen:

This article provides a nice description of the KAZ antenna. Other articles
are referenced. There have been various tests of larger and smaller KAZ
antennas. The KAZ is my favorite antenna for dxpedtions, and has been very
effective on trips where no beverages were possible. I much prefer the KAZ
over the pennant and the ewe variations.

It is a different name for a Terminated Delta Loop- Earl K6SE developed the
recieiving Delta Loop for 160 meters, June 1, 2000
He was too late to get it into his printing of Flag and Pennant Antennas in
QST July 2000.
Designed for best F/B on 160 meters and zero recactance at 1.830 MHZ. It
requires only one support at the top of the loop.
The antenna was used by FO0AAA very successfully
I had an antenna trasformer customer who built one recently and reported much
success. He used the dimensions from the eham article.
Like Pennant, and flag antenna it is low noise and ground independant.
An article appears in eham with the dimensions from that Earl's antenna.

Someone, named Charles, asked me if I could point him toward information on
the"KAZ" antenna. I have lost, misplaced or accidentally deleted your
e-mail. Please ask again, and I'll try to find some links to get you
started. Otherwise, I will just post them here.
