> When I listen on my 80M dipole via a tuner effective for 6M
> (MFJ-945E) the band is much more quiet so I can hear more
> signals.
>
> When I listen on my 6M delta loop I get a ton more noise so it is
> much more difficult to even detect some of the same signals -
> but my transmitted signal receives better reports.

> The delta loop is fed at the bottom of the inverted triangle so
> the orientation is more horizontal, like the dipole, than vertical.
