[MRCA] any HF /PM magnetic loop users out there?

[W2HX]

Interesting.  How did you like it for performance vs. convenience?

I have played with them on 40 meters, biggest problem is obtaining a high voltage capacitor to tune them with. To start out I just ran low power and used common trimmer caps, and tested the directional pattern just using a receiver. BTW resonance of the loop on your frequency is easily found by just using a receiver.

I've been reading about some magnetic loop antennas for HF /PM work and have become quite interested in them. Anyone play with them?
