Loop antenna matching question

Oops, I didn't mention anything about symmetry in that post. Probably because I'm not sure how important it might be. So if it is an issue, I'm all ears! - 73 de Mike N3LI - Mike, the symmetry issue is about whether you want the deepest nulls. A gamma match is not likely to give you the best symmetry and hence the deepest nulls. You are talking about a smallish loop, and without modelling it, I wonder if the gamma feed is as efficient say, as a inner feed loop. You have gone to a lot of trouble to keep losses in the loop down, it would be a pity to compromise it too much with the feed system. Owen |
