If lack the space for a more traditional antenna, a Wellbrook loop
might be a good choice:

You might not need the rotor, depending on which antenna you buy and
how noisy your surroundings are.

If you have any questions, just give Andy Ikin a call.

I want to be able to null. Does it work well on MW?

Some of the work better than others on MW. When you visit the site, you
should be able to download details on the different models they have
available.

Yes when I use my ICOM R75 or Grundig Sat. 800. But not for all other
radio. Sometimes the telescopic antenna works better!

I've seen this word before what is null? BTW I have a friend who has
the book EASY-UP ANTENNAS FOR RADIO LISTENERS AND HAMS, EDWARD M NOLL.
Maybe I'll take a look at it.

All antennas receive better in some directions and worse in others.
The good directions are ''lobes'' the bad directions are ''nulls''.

A loop antenna has killer nulls perpundicular to the plane of the
coils. If you are trying to hear on a channel with more than one
station you can steer the null toward one of the stations and then
just hear the other one. This is the #1 advantage of a loop antenna,
IMHO.

I read your message. If you get this message on time, I am getting a
station that sound like Indian music. Around Bettween 7.15 and 7.2 am.

Sorry but I am using my Hammarlund 170. The dial is hard to read.

Then why don't you check with your R75... then you can find the correct
frequency.

Hey: It was one of those moments when a swl all of the sudden find
something on the airwaves and gets excited. By the time I would of
connected my R75, which was put away, the broadcast could of disappeared.

Considering the effort, it was only something to share.

You can make a very accurate calibration chart for those old analog

Well he probably can, but it would probably be a major undertaking for a stem
such as yourself.
