Default HIGH Q CAPS FOR VLF LOOP ANTENNA?

"K7ITM" wrote in message
ups.com...
I could perhaps scan the relevant pages of the references I
mentioned...

How are you planning to couple your 2-ohm load to your loop without
doing really bad things to its Q? (And just what sort of detector do
you have that represents a 2 ohm load?)

Cheers,
Tom


He probably measured the DC resistance at the antenna input connector. If
there's an inductance path to ground, then that's probably what he measured.
The DC resistance is NOT the RF impedance of the input.

Cheers!!!!
