WOW GUYS! Basic NULLING 101!
If a station is east of you, its at 90 degrees relative. OK Should be easy! If you aim the end of a ferrite loop antenna pointing at 90 degrees (east/west) you are NULLING that station. Its still at 90 degrees relative, it did not move, it is stationary! GOT IT! Now, if you rotate your antenna 90 degrees you get a peak in signal, but your station is still at 90 degrees relative, east of you. It did not move anywhere. It is still at 90 degrees relative! You dont add 90 more degrees to make it 180. It is still at 90 degrees relative to the east! My null on the 1500khz mystery station is at 170 degrees relative (ends of Quantum Loop pointing almost N/S). If I go for a maximum signal by rotating my antenna 90 degrees for a peak signal, the station is still at 170 degrees relative! You dont add 90 more degrees! The 1500khz station did not move 90 degrees! Its still to the south someplace at 170 degrees relative!
