Barry, KF5GC
because I personally think that Square loops work better than delta
loops... it's just a matter of preference.
I'm currently running a delta loop, but only because I don't have
anything 100' tall for support for a full sized, vertical planed,
square loop. :-)
Add to the fact that I think that with a square looop, and less than 1/4
wavelength off of the ground, I'm asking for trouble with neighbors and
RFI...
At least with the vertically planed square loop at ~100 at the top, half
of the antenna would be well above the structures of neighborhood
dwellings, garages and trees and other obsticals that would capture a
signal, and force it to radiate into a poorly designed peice of
electronic equipment, acting improperly as a radio reciever...
