Hi Tom,
I used a K9AY loop in my small back yard in Houston. I rarely ever found the
need for a preamp BUT I used an old Ameco PT-3 preamp inside the shack. That
did just fine for me.

Hello OMs,
I plan to build a K9AY antenna.My question is about location of its
preamplifier.I consider locating it inside the control box at the base of the
antenna.Does it have any advantage/disadvantage? I am concerned about signal
strength loss in coax between antenna and radio if amplifier is located at the
receiver side.I do appreciate any comments-
Tom, SP7WT
