I have been researching for a while now around the area of nested delta
loops. I want to upgrade my multi-band vertical antenna with delta loops, each one resonant to cover 20 to 10m. However there is nothing on the internet about nested delta loops. My wish is to have the delta loops orientated such that they are pointed at the top and fed one third of the way up one of the vertical sides to get a low angle of radiation. I realise that they have an impedance of around 100 Ohms and this would need to be matched. The usual method of doing this is to use a quarter wave length of 75R coax to match to 50R. Much in the same way that parallel dipoles can be fed with a common feeder, can 5 delta loops be fed via coax matching stubs with a common 50R feeder? (i.e. bring the ends of the matching stubs together?). I tried in the summer to nest 5 delta loops with the feed point as described above and then brought the feed points together (without matching stubs) , however it is not physically possible to do this - they really need separating out. Any ideas any one? My basic aim is to have 5 resonant antennas with no tuning unit involved. Thanks John |
