greetings...

I have been a ham since the mid 60's and the main antenna of choice appears
to be dipole... However, over the past few months, or so, I have been
reading more and more about this loop antenna.....

I am reasonable sure I can get more information about it so I won't bore you
with how to build one, etc, .. my question is more of why or how... Why has
this antenna become so popular over the past little while and how did it get
this popularity....What charateristics, besides seemingly not needing as
much geography to need to put up, does this antenna have that make is so
appealing?

I might consider it...for 80 or 40...
