A truly great presentation on 80 and 160 meter antennas can be found at:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ux5UoiYyKNM.  It is a presentation Frank made to the Frankford Radio Club in January and he really covers the field.  The presentation covers ALL low-band receiving and transmitting antennas, not just those at super-station W3LPL.

Two things are interesting to note:
    -Small mag loop antennas are not good receiving antennas for DX
    -The Flex 6700 is not a contest radio

Of course, it is about much more than these items.

Thanks again to Dewey, W0YWW, for pointing this out to me.  By the way, Dewey has a brand new never-out-of-the-box small mag loop receiving antenna for sale!
