Hi!....

I`ve just built a magloop 5`square and i find the variable cap only tunes
down to 4.45mhz..
can i pad the cap out with a coaxial ur213 stub to reach 3.5mhz ???....

(The 1metre loop works fine - 15 to 7mhz ).. :-)



Sorted!!!!...... I rebuilt my variable capacitor and found a bad link in a
bank of stator vanes ...effectively, only half the stators were coupled
...... i can now cover 80 metres.....yippee!!!....

Thanks for everyones help and advice.....find me on 3.697megs.......
;-) or, more likely, 3.733megs, QRV SSTV, analogue or digital....

Regards.....
