Well you can ask Lyle how a loop compares to a vertical as he has data from
my transmissions this winter comparing my vertical to my loop. My loop is
also pointing directly at him.

I was planning on watching the screen captures that others have been
posting.  I won't have a receiver capable of narrow-bandwidth work until
next month :(

Right now I'm working on _transmitting_, and was curious to see the
comparison.  This is probably all old hat for you guys though.
