Paul, Try a K9AY for 40/80/160 or maybe a 5' x 5' passive magnetic loop for 160M. Array solutions also make another variant on the K9AY which may be superior - I do not know. For the low band receive antennas can be a considerable help and for 160M are a must if you want to hear on this band.
73 Doug EI2CN PS I can not find you on QRZ.COM. Where are you located? I am in County Louth four miles north of Drogheda. Drop I for an eyeball if in the area. -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Paul Barlow Sent: 30 January 2015 19:16 To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Separate Receiving Antenna Dear Elecrafters, I have a very small and odd shaped garden in which to play Ham Radio. I have a K3 (and a K2 and... ), I run QRP CW and I was wondering if anyone had experience of using active loop antennas as receiving antennas to lower the noise floor. I was looking at Wellbrook's Website this afternoon, and I see that their loops get good reviews on EHam. I was wondering what experience you guys might have with these and similar antennas. 73, Paul EI5KI ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to turnb...@net1.ie ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
