40-145 Loop Antenna Help
#9

Rob,

Just watched Jim's videos about this particular antenna. I'm a fan of Jim's channel, but hadn't realized he had just uploaded a video on this antenna. Would have been nice to have found that a few weeks ago, but still, the challenge of figuring something out is part of the fun. I noticed the format of his antenna is rather unique even though it follows the same general principle as outlined in the schematic. Unlike Jim, I noticed a considerable difference when attaching this antenna instead of using a length of wire attached to the back. Almost all of the distortion of the signal this set was experiencing (like being underwater) was eliminated.

Again, thanks.

Jim
