PI's Ashlock loop is now generally orientated E-W. Exact bearing will be
determined tomorrow when I get back from an overnight trip.
The current antenna current (?) is .745A
The tuning capacitance is 6410 pf
The loop measures .165 mH
I am sending PI at one word per minute. When I figure out how to get this
@#$%^& LW-MAX to do real QRSSx I will switch to that.
I measure the frequency as 185.3005 but I could be WAY off. If anyone finds
the signal I would appreciate a report.
Bill:
The test coil required 7720 pf to max out at .724A.
Leaving now for a trip, back tomorrow evening.
73,
Mike
