Point is that a loop reduces that "noise" where a dipole allows the "noise" to build up until it arcs across the coax connector which causes an extreme amount of "noise". One night in AZ, my PL-239 connected to my IC-745 was arcing so loud that it woke me up. I disconnected it and tossed it on the floor. A few minutes later, the carpet was smoking. Aside from the arcing waking me up and the burning of the carpet, there was no difference. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp -----------== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----= Over 100,000 Newsgroups - Unlimited Fast Downloads - 19 Servers =----- |
