Topband: more affordable options for rx antenna on 160M...

[BRYON PAUL n0ah VEAL]

We sure appreciate all of the suggestions that keep coming in- we just got this one WB6RSE- Definately in our budget- although the system DX'Engineering had, after examining all of its features, really looked great! Smart system with the auto grounding etc out of the box- But $$$$

Any opinion on this design below suggested by WB6RSE?  We are curious about minimum distance of using the loop off the ground?

Again, we appreciate all of the advice and ideas- it has turned out to be a good learning experience in many aspects- of note, on the HZ-3, the distributor, once they understood our previous discussions with the makers, agreed to give us the old price since we had already been quoted-  We have moved on from that design due to yard restrictions but it was nice of them- Array Solutions is a very decent company to deal with- we wish them all the luck in the world with taking over the HZ-Antennas product line- -
