I have a full size 80M loop up approximately 40 to 50 feet in an approximate
square.  I also have a modest vertical, 40 feet tall, with capacitance hat.
Comparing signals tonight, the loop is obviously better for local - about 2
s-units or more.  What is surprising, is that the loop is also hearing DX
better.  Europe as a whole is approximately 1 s-unit louder on the loop than
on the vertical.  Is this anomalous behavior - or is my vertical that
crappy?
