[Antennas] BCB Loop Antennas

Thu, 26 Sep 2002 22:49:02 -0400

Hi Gary,

Do a google search.  Try combos of BCB, loop, antenna in the same search.
A multi-loop wire antenna is very easy to build for small spaces... think of
winding a long piece of wire around a cardboard box.

---- you might want to look at some 'mag-loop' designs also (single
conductor). -- They do have very sharp tuning (small bandwidth) at BCB and
low HF frequencies and typically need variable caps to widen it a bit.

There is another list on qth named 'mag-loops'.

Join that list and read the archives for 'mag-loops' on qth.  You'll get
quite a few links to other sites including some plans and even some design
programs..
