SkyWire Loop Antenna [Was: Wire loop.] Question
Terry,
SkyWire Loop Antenna [Was: Wire loop.] Question http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SkyWires/message/1311 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Shortw...a/message/5366 If both ends are coming together to form a Loop : Then it is Balanced and can be feed directly via Ladder Line or Coax Cable. With Coax Cable as a Feed-Line; you could also use a 1:1 Matching Transformer (Balun) if the Loop is going to be used for both Tx & Rx. NOTE - 240 Feet of wire puts you at about 4.2 MHz with a SkyWire Loop Antenna. FWIW - If this Loop Antenna is 'only' for Receiving then a 4:1 Matching Transformer (Balun) could be use with Coax Cable as a Feed-in-Line. SKYWIRE LOOP ANTENNA : This type of Large and Low Loop Antenna is generally called a SkyWire Loop Antenna. There is a specific group for builders and users of SkyWire Loop Antennas on YAHOO ! = http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SkyWires/ This group is for people interested in building and using a Sky-Wire Loop Antenna SKYWIRE = http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SkyWires/ This group is for the Radio Experimenter who wants to Learn and Exchange their Knowledge and 'secrets' about the SkyWire Loop Antenna. SKYWIRE = http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SkyWires/ Here are a few SkyWire Loop Antenna Links : * SkyWire Loop Antenna {PDF Reprint} http://srgproperties.inetusanow.net/.../9467_2192.pdf * KC8OPV Skywire Loop Antenna http://www.qsl.net/kc8opv/antennas/skywireloop/ * The Stone Mountain Loop http://www.subdevo.com:82/n4jvp/loop/loop.htm * Dr. Ace's [WH2T] Full Wave Loop Antenna Info http://www.bloomington.in.us/~wh2t/loop.html * L.B.
