********************** If you have space on a balcony (and a bit of spare cash), you might try the ALA100 loop or one of its higher gain cousins, Dennis http://www.wellbrook.uk.com/ Even the ALA100 works quite well on LW with a lot less than the 20m circumference they specify. Colin Newell might be able to offer some words of wisdom, as he uses them on an apartment balcony. But some sort of loop is probably the way to go for longwave. Active whips can work, but can be real noise detectors. best wishes, Nick _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
