Great article Thomas! I'm planning on building a combo-loop for 160/80.
As an aside, there are many articles on the web about low-band receiving loops
and there's a fellow who will build you one for 160, 80 or a combination of
both.
His website is http://www.qsl.net/kc2tx/ Also, I was able to find the trimmer
caps at Ocean State Electronics -- http://www.oselectronics.com/
Good luck to everyone who builds/buys one of the loops. Hope to work you in
the CQ 160 CW contest.
