I finally have arrived (~ one month late) at the point where I will be
transmitting on the 80ft diam 3/4" pipe loop. During the early evening hours
I will be testing and tuning this loop to determine if everything is working
correctly. Later in the evening, if all is OK, I will be sending my typical
WAs with slant marker on 185.300 but with an alternating big loop/small loop
sequence (one WA and slant per loop). Both loops are pointing in the E/W
direction and both will have 1W inputs, so the signal should represent the
difference in loop current x area.
Tomorrow I plan to reduce the Vcc to the large loop's final so that both
loops will have the same current x area product and this should make both
signals appear equal at all distances.
I will greatly appreciate ARGO signal strength measurements as well as plain
old signal strength measurements from distances under 50 miles.
