My review of the wellbrook ALA 330S loop antenna so far.

first things first i was going to test this antenna mounted in my loft
but the loop would not fit through the loft door opening.

So my first test was carried out as follows.
i stood the antenna in the middle of my room floor.
i had the 330S connected to an antenna switch so i could flick the switch to
compare the performance between other antennas i have mounted out doors..
when i had the 330S connected up like this just sitting in the middle of my
room floor. my other antennas did perform better signal wise but the
wellbrook was much quieter but the signals were a lot lower.....one thing i
did notice is that why i was useing the wellbrook 330S in this position is i
tuned into a distant signal that i could hear why using the 330S then i
flicked the antenna switch between my two other out door antennas and i
could only hear the signal using the 330S as the noise was a lot less....
this is as far as i have progressed so far.....
my next test will be to locate the antenna on a fence post in my back
garden..
then when i get time i will be mounting it about 50+ feet high...

as for my circumstances my farther in laws cancer treatment well.
he was admitted to Hospital on Monday 24th and was expecting to have his
operation first thing Tuesday. his operation was going to take 12+ hours ..
well on the Tuesday the doctors got my farther in-law all ready for his
operation they went as far as wheeling him down to the operating room they
had injected him with strong pain killers and relaxants then just as they
were to wheel him into the operating room the operation was cancelled due to
the intensive care bed had been taken and he was sent home later that day
and he now has to wait for another couple of weeks for his operation and it
could be cancelled again. how ****ing cruel is that this country is going
to the wall the health service is totally ****. one day i am going to get
out of this god forbidden country......

As soon as i have time i will test the Wellbrook 330S mounted out doors.....

all in all the antenna seemed to perform better than my out door antennas
but the signal was low but then again it was only sitting on the floor....
