1. Topband: K9AY loop question (score: 1)
Author: Paul Baldock <pbaldock@verizon.net>

Has anybody tried a K9AY loop over elevated radials? If so were there any improvements, such as better f/b or more signal? Thanks Paul _______________________________________________ Topband mailing

Thanks for the advice. I've your 2 loop design in use for about a month now and it works well. Its just a foot or so above ground, but not very good ground. I'm very impressed with your means for pas

I put up a beverage about 600ft long today at height between 4ft. to 6ft. I have a 1:9 transformer (although it actually measured about 1:11) at the feed end, with both sides of the transformer to th

It seems I could check to see if this is happening by removing the beverage wire connection to the transformer box and seeing if noise is present. Comments? Paul _____________________________________

The consensus for grounding Beverages seems to be to use a "real transformer" and have isolated grounds for the antenna and the coax. Does the same apply to the K9AY antenna? Has anybody tried it bot

How tall is too tall? I'm using a 140ft tower with a full size 40M beam on the top, which must be electrically well over a quarter wave. I'm shunt feeding it at 60ft with an omega match. - Paul _____

Its difficult to know what "working well" is, with nothing to compare it to. You certainly beat me out when we're calling at the same time. But I did manage to work close to 100 countries last season

I had the same problem, but only with +/-12V but not with 12V AC. I solved it by using an isolation style 9:1 transformer rather than the auto-transformer. I let the input side of the transformer and

You are right it does creep over time. What I finally noticed was not a change in gain, but a difference in frequency response between LSB and USB, most easily detected by listen to background noise
