I have a 160 meter rcv loop - kc2tx product - I want to employ this season.
I don't have a lot of band noise here in s/w Utah and don't want to bother with
a rotor so....can I mount the loop in a horizontal configuration and expect
some improvement in rcv signal strength? I seem to recall Tom, W8JI, cautioning
me to ensure I have the loop perfectly level. I do have a kd9sv preamp to
employ and the Zo at the antenna is 50 ohms (verified on my Autek ant analyzer)
so I can use 50 coax for the feedline.
Thanks, in advance for any 'advice' or reaffirmation I am on solid` ground here.
