Garry,
The loop uses different trees than the original, and was oriented a bit
more to the south (to favor my home QTH in MA). Your grid square would
have a signal about 3-4 dB below max. That might be enough to make a
difference. Next year's target will be to improve efficiency a bit by
restringing it with the old coax.
