[CQ-Contest] delta loop question 80m

[Peter Chamalian]

I have used one for years and feed it with open wire line so no worries
about covering both ends of the band -- but since I rarely go any higher
than 3600 it's not a worry.

Hello all,
Hope it's oK to ask this on this forum.
Trying to figure out if it's worthwhile to make one delta loop that will
cover most of CW and lower part of SSB.
Does anyone have up a full wave delta loop for 75/80M?
If so, what are your 2:1 SWR band edges?
I was thinking if I cut it to resonate around 3.6 it might be wide enough
for both.
If not I'll just go with 2 separate antennas.

Thanks and 73,
Darrell AB2E
