A 30 foot high 1 wl loop makes no sense on 160 meters.
If you have room for that, you have room for a
real antenna.

     I have a large horizontal square loop about 625 feet fed with 30 feet of 
300 ohm ribbon cable.  For field day I made a smaller horizontal loop, 430 
feet, triangle shape inside the larger loop also fed with 300 ohm twin lead.
   What if I connect the smaller loop twin lead to the feed point of the larger 
loop thereby using both loops with a single feed.
Any advantages/disadvantages doing this?
