I have a 9::1 balun.
This coax cable they describe, would any other cable say RG8/RG6 do the same
job? * Live close to heavy industry and the noise at times just blankets the
area.

-* NEED a quiet antenna. *Thanks for the help!

Do you or some of the others have any input on this antenna? * *Seems a
bit
too good to be true but great if it works.

Cheaper just to roll your own transformer and hook up a wire to it.

Justis,

Try a single turn Horizontal [Flat] Loop Antenna using
a Coax Cable RG6 'Quad-Shield' [72 Ohm] and a 4:1
Matching Transformer. -versus- a Long Wire Antenna

Use a single insulated multi-strand wire for the Antenna
Element; or use 300 Ohm [TV] Twin Lead run as a
parallel [2] wire single turn loop.

Any 3~4~or~more points to mount the Loop will do
Does not have to be a perfect circle or square.
Does not have to be perfectly flat generally horazontal
will do.
