Does anyone have an idea regarding the affect of
a T shaped loop? I know that a circle has larger
ap then a delta loop or square loop. Would an effect
be realized with a T?


sounds like a folded dipole. - and it should act like one too.
you'll find that if you can move the 'vertical' part of the 'T' (feedpoint)
using a pully setup, that the arrangement can be used for several bands.
put a 4-1 balun at the bottom of the T.

Any thoughts?

The free demo version of EZNEC available from http://eznec.com can
easily answer questions just like this.

It refuses to calculate SWR due to multiple wires
running so close would create interactions.

Bill

There shouldn't be any problem with that antenna. Please send me the
description (.EZ) file as an email attachment, and I'll look it over.

Hi Bill,

Not sure about EZNEC Demo, but EZNEC 3.0 models it and gives Source Data (SWR) in the 600 to 1200
ohm range. Maybe you should check your connections and try again. For what it's worth, the pattern
is like most large horizontal loops, except for two large lobes in the direction of the top corners
of the tee.

I did quickly in the middle of the night. I will
look it over and see I can find some problem with
the wires. I used EZNEC demo 4.0.

Thanks

I did get it to model SWR with high reactances(to me anyways).
Does this seem right? I dunno. Thanks
