OMG your garden is TINY. You will never be able to operate on top band
unless you get a vertical!
I wish mine was 40*17ft.

Hi,

Any designs for a small antenna to work on 160M? My garden is approx 40ft

x
17ft.

Post links here.

Thanks.

A loop should be cut at approx. lambda/10, so with a circumference of 16m or
a radius of 5m !
Too bulky for a small garden

==============================

What prevents it being cut with a circumference LESS than 16m.

Indeed, there isn't anything on 160M that's going to NOT be a compromise
here.
