For those who may not monitor the SEDXC reflector, Hal, N4GG
recently did a presentation at one of their meeting.  The topic was building
and using the K9AY Loop Antenna.  Unfortunately I was not in town that
week, but the PowerPoint slides on construction details and Video clip of how
the antenna performs can be viewed at the SEDXC web site http://www.sedxc.org/.  Look down the
page a bit for the “Flashing” sign.  It’s a great
presentation.  It also has reminded me I need to finish up my summer
project of loading my tower and building my 160M K9AY loop.  The weather
is finally cooling off a little making working in the woods a lot more
enjoyable.  
With a great video clip like the one shown, I’m sure
there will be a run on binocular cores !  If you build one of these
receiving antennas (or any other antenna project), please share your results
and a picture on the SECC reflector.  The upcoming contest season is right
around the corner !
