Giuseppe’s Homemade “Magic Tablet” Antenna System?
« on: November 19, 2021, 2019 UTC »
Another SWL'ing rip.   https://swling.com/blog/2021/11/giuseppes-homemade-magic-tablet-antenna-system/#comment-677623 

I made something like this from a godz-eye antenna, but mine is for just Medium Wave, but this dude made is switch from 40M, then 80M, and then 20M. Nice!!!! Granted, my Italian is non-existent, but the VID shows a lot.

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.

Re: Giuseppe’s Homemade “Magic Tablet” Antenna System? God's-Eye Loop?

Oh... Huh... Just did a search myself for that, and years ago, there were all sorts of God's-Eye loop antennas instructions out there. Huh... Not as much today, which is odd,   but here's a .PDF download of one that's essentially the same thing, except this dude tilted his 45 degrees to look like a square. Either way, the same.    http://167.250.5.172/docs/Radio/Antennas/Am_Loop_Antennas_2004.pdf

Oh... Here's my search from Startpage results,     https://startpage.com/sp/search   , when I typed-in    "homebrew am god's-eye antenna loop?"    I try to stay away from Google, when I can. (Hi-hi...) And, what a difference substituting that "z" for an "s" on god's. Anyway, hope that helps.
