Hi Dave, I still recommend tuned and untuned loops to folks on an almost daily basis but they definitely dont shed as much light on the situation as a unidirectional antenna does. It would be nice to

Hi Mike, Gary, and gang, Well after seeing Garys shielded un-tuned loop, I watched the video on how to build that loop. I just built one almost identical to his loop but used RG-58 coax since that's

Hi Gary and gang, Let me go back and clarify my previous statement about your shielded loop as I just did more testing on higher frequencies. Down in the AM broadcast band your loop based on my using

Hi Jim, I just went back and looked at the audio on Garys recording using a real benchtop oscilloscope instead of a software based audio scope. I'm seeing an obvious burst of noise at a rate of 60 Hz

Hi Dave, The W7IUV preamp is a great preamp and it actually works just fine with a 9 volt alkaline battery for portable use and it's what I've historically used with my tuned loops and portable flag.

Hi Gary, You might also consider the DX Engineering preamp which offers about 10 dB more gain than the W7IUV preamp and it has built in attenuators which come in very handy as you approach the source
