DeWayne,

[Hidden] Loop Antennas
- Big "Fancy" Flower Box with a Wood and Wire Trellis
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...a/message/9150

Once knew a guy "The BlackSmith" who could not have an
Out-Door Antenna to use with his Yaesu FRG-7700 Receiver.

So he built his Wife a two Big "Fancy" Flower Boxes
(2' W x 8' L) and each had a nice Wood and Wire Trellis
{Loop Antennas}

The Flower Boxes sat in a rear corner of the backyard
(at 90* to each other) with a Fountain and small Pond
between them.

Each of the Trellis had Two Rectangular (6' H x 8' L)
Loop Antennas :
* One-Turn Shortwave Loop Antenna
* Ten-Turn AM/MW Loop Antenna.

NOTE - Having these Four Loop Antennas [Hidden] in the
Trellises of the Flower Boxes did require that he run Four
Coax Cables to an Antenna Switch in the Shack and then
he used a MFJ-956 -or- Grove Tun-3 Pre-Selector and
Antenna Tuner to Dial in his Loop Antennas.

FWIW - I suggested that he only use two Loop Antennas
each AM/MW Ten-Turn Loop and a DC Relay that could be
Turned "ON" from the Shack to 'Open-Up' the Loop at the
Coax Cable Shield's Side to the Loop-End Juntion and
have it function like a Bent Random Wire Antenna about
280 Feet long. He like his design using the Four Loops.

OBTW - One small problem that he did have was that the
Fountain - Pond Pump Moter had to be turn "Off" when he
wanted to Listen to the Radios ;-(


DeWayne - So may be you could build a nice Flower Box
with a Trellis for a Window or two ) - iane ~ RHF
