thanks for the review ! 73.

 

Thanks, for all the work you do. Really like the comparison between several of the loops. At present time using a home made loop out of .5" heliax and a vacuum capacitor. Works great been able to tune down to 80 meters. 73.

Video not longer playing? I guess he gave the Kx2 away to a lucky operator uh?

 

The games still on. The video is up, we're waiting on the starting bell. About 700 more subs.

 

Two things:

1. I missed the power handling of each loop. 100W? 600W
2. You do a great job talking a comparison, what about SHOWING performance?

Great work, thanks!!

 

Thanks for the reply! Watched the vid and sub'd. I think I have a chance to win

The vid was down when I first posted to this thread.


Good luck!

 

How about ON Air comparison ?

Come on MAN!!!!

Don't have unreal expectations for these antennas at best they only handle 25 watts. I have two loop antennas one is the MFJ-1886 and the other is the Doxytronics 8020 loop. Both work well but lately it seem that you need a full wave loop or beam and 100 plus watts on 40 meters to be heard.
