I really need to do more reading on the topic. One of my interests
initially was to use phasing to eliminate RFI sources that had a
particular bearing. Now it's more to eliminate pest stations, like 1100
WTAM or 700 WLW or the Chicago stations, most of which are to the sides.
The "hot" end I'm assuming is the direction the D-Kaz is aimed at, which
in my case is to the south.
I've been thinking about trying out a superloop pointed West. Maybe that
would be a good one to use with the D-Kaz for phasing?

Id like to point out that it is quite feasible to phase a

variant of the idea was the LSCA, and reporints are / were available
from the clubs about it.
But I didn't understand what is meant by the "hot end". Nor why
phasing would affect what a DKAZ delivers.

Mark, if you use an omni antenna to phase the D-Kaz you'll also be
pulling
down signals from the "hot" end of the D-Kaz.
You might do better by phasing with a loop orthogonal to the D-Kaz;
this
would help you wipe out stuff from the sides.
Cheers!

I'm open to suggestions on that. Currently I have a DKaz pointed south,
and a small vertical wire going from ground level up to about 30 feet
high in a tree. That is my "check" antenna because it's
omni-directional. (It also is closer to the house and any noise sources
within....)

Hi Mark. Perhaps, what antennae will you be using?

So if I've never used a phaser before, would this be a good "starter"
