Trying on 6920 AM

Stretchy - I've read some sources that say a properly resonant mag loop antenna will work just fine, even mounted vertically on the ground.  :o  If that's true, I may be able to use one with a vertical orientation and still keep it fairly out of sight.  I guess we'll find out if I end up going down that path.  Right now I have to wait a few days before I can even try my fence dipole.  I had to order in 150' of coax to even make the connection from my rig.   :D

Stretchyman:
OH, I though he wanted NVIS?

Your 'Distances' are so much 'Larger' over there!

 :D

Stretchyman:
Yes the loop will be very good and will radiate low and high angle radiation so give you good coverage (local, aka NVIS & DX) when mounted close to the ground.

Remember the rather high voltages which will be around even with 100W = 5KV! so keep it at 10' or so.

You on the E or W coast?

Or somewhere in between?

Str.

jackson_r:
West Coast of the U.S. 

Stretchyman:
The west is the best they say!

OK, where's your 'Target' audience?

Fellow West coasters, East Coast, Europe or anywhere else?
