Hi,
I was trying EWEs and magnetic loops and at least in my case K9AY loops are
much better.They are not beverages of course but really help.I have now 200m
beverages to the East and south /FT5ZH HI/ and signals from K9AY loops is
weaker than from beverages but anyway its worth to try it.
They are working even better on 80m.
