Hi Guys,
I have had a 80m loop antenna,up at 30ft.;in my backyard for over 4
years. It works great.
Tunable on many bands except 160. I suppose I could short the leads
together to get 160m but I don't do that. Which brings me to this
question: I have a COBRA ultra-lite senior which
is an inverted "V". The feedpoint is at 55ft.,and the ends are at say
15ft. above ground. NOW,
I was wondering about the end of that inverted "V".......it goes right
into and near that 80m loop ! I believe that the inside the 80m loop
is where the "action" is. It doesn't matter if the
loop is delta,or square,or even totally round! IS MY inverted "V" leg
of the dipole interacting
with the loop ?? I have plans to RAISE my 80m loop up another 15ft.
higher....will I get problems when I do ?? One leg of my 160m antenna
goes right in the middle of my 80m loop. IF the LOOP goes higher will
it intereact? So far,at how I got things set now....no major
issues. I never use both antennas at the same time.
