- I am panning to try out a top loaded delta loop for 80 meters strung off the side of my tower. I want to have a horizontally polarized loop. I will feed at the middle of the bottom horizontal leg. Do

- Bob, IMHO what you described would be a linear loaded loop and the folded down wires should be at the top and the feed where you described. This avoids some feedline interaction. But remember such an

- The reason I am trying a horizontally polarized delta loop is because I had a vertically polarized delta strung from the tower and it was too noisy. The tower was reradiating noise to the delta. I am

- Hi Bob, I had a look at your QTH via Google Earth. Would appear that the only support you have is your tower. And on something like a 65 x115 corner city lot. How tall is your tower? 73, Guy K2AV ___

- thanks guys, I will experiment with the top loading and also pulling the bottom away to a wider angle and see how it goes. 73, Bob K6UJ _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... .
