Hi Bill,

My loop is based on the Octoloop design.  See:  
http://www.lwca.org/library/articles/ywk/octoloop.htm

Mine has about three turns of Cat-5 Ethernet cable with all 16 wires 
connected in series.  The output is tapped a couple of turns from the 
grouns ens, and the whole thing is broadly resonated with a fixed cap.

I'm also hoping that winter conditions will favor us this time.

Regards,
Al
