Good Evening,
The house is cozy warm -- both Sam and I are fed and happy. The
critters are staying outside these days and they seem to enjoy it too.
I've been hearing a deer bound into the woods as I leave the house after

I gave up on LDG after having the Elecraft tuners. I was very disappointed.
The only non elecraft tuner I am successfully using is a remote SGC for a

it tunes, doesn't work squat. I am pulling that one down and going with

I have some questions for the group. How would one decide whether the ends
should be left open, versus connected together to make a loop? (I never

Great fun to work at this moment US on 14 MHz with only 10 W bare K2 SSB
from PA-country ( Netherlands ) with only a 7 mtr vertical wire without
radials ( KAT2 obviously tunes great ).
I wonder how my bare K2 could be heard in US between all those big EU >1KW

It's not as simple as that.
After building my K2 #5551, a very busy friend allowed me to build his, #4150.
This had started life as a much earlier K2 for which he'd obtained upgrades, a
new serial number and a set of pre-wound toroids to bring it up to the latest
specification but unfortunately, due to time constraints, he

Peter,
The Impedance range that the KAT2 will match will be greater on the higher
bands than the lower (just because of the math in the formulas for impedance
of inductors and capacitors). So I hesitate to guess at an answer becuase
you did not specify a frequency - I can add up the inductor and

Is it something like 5-1000 ?
Can't find no indication wherever.

I agree with your sentiment. My 'doublet' was nearly a loop, ie it followed
the beams around the loft. The ends were left open, about a foot apart.

I'm surprised with all this talk of dipoles and doublets that no-one has
mentioned loops. I'm not an antenna expert, but it has always seemed to me
that the efficiency of an antenna is somewhat related to the amount of wire
in the radiating element.
You can get more wire in a loop round the per
