Glenn: Yes, for some unknown reason it has gotten very confusing!
The best way to get a bearing with the quantum loop is to find the "null" (minimum signal) because it is just a few degrees wide! Can't get any easier then that. This mystery station noise signal is too weak to deflect the s-meter for a max or minimum! The mystery station on 1500khz has a null about 170 degrees! And with your logic it will also be the maximum signal, at 170 degrees! I don't know where this +/- 90 degrees is coming from! This station on 1500khz is east of south from Joliet! And a DX'er in Michigan has the bearing around 180 degrees. This tells me it's to the south!

Tom, do you mean then that the maximum signal would be 90 degrees away from 170, i.e., 80 / 260 degrees, or do you mean that 170 degrees is the direxion of the maximum, not minimum signal? I thought you previously found it to be southward from you. And Les`s latest at 240 degrees is WSW from him in Maylene AL, not WNW. 73, Glenn -------------------------------------------- On Tue, 2/9/16, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: Subject: Re: [NRC-AM] 1500khz Mystery Station To: [email protected], [email protected] Date: Tuesday, February 9, 2016, 11:51 PM I just checked 1500khz again this afternoon and as mentioned yesterday the "null" (minimum signal) for the noise is around 170 degrees. The antenna is a Quantum QX Pro located in the attic.
