I have had good luck with the superloop 40 from radioworks which is a
bottom fed vertical delta loop. Contrary to Cebik, I find that it's
about 1/2 S unit better on 40M than my dipole, although the vertical
section is a stub and makes it not exactly a delta loop on 40M..
fyi

Hi all:

I've been thinking about making a vertically polarized Delta Loop for 40m.
I've seen articles on the internet having the feed point at one of the lower
corners of the triangle for vertical polorization, others having the feed point
on one of the sides, 1/4 wl from the top. Does it make any difference if its
sloping (within reason) or does it need to be perpendicular to the ground?

Anyone here have any experience here?


Thanks,
