Hi Group: OK... here's my mag loop story: I have two AlexLoops.... and one is the original version that uses copper tubing for the main loop. I used that loop to make an RTTY QSO with a station in Moldova. I had set the loop up indoors (in my sunroom, which has a lot of windows) and worked that station on 40 meters... running 3 or 4 watts. OK, it was during a contest... the contact was quick, but acknowledged both ways... so a Q is a Q.And, that was my best DX with that antenna. The fact that it was 40 meters, the loop's least efficient band, is amazing to me. I suspect that the other guy was using a much better antenna, and likely more power. 73 de Ray K2ULR KX3 #211 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net
