Guy Atkins sent me this link awhile ago, don't know if you've seen it Les.

That's with a slightly larger version of the same antenna I believe.
A smaller and earlier version, closer to what you might be able to
handle is here:

Problem with smaller ones, is that you may null a strong station, but
there's nothing left to hear on the channel, as you're only left with
the noise floor. An antenna with a good null is not necessarily a
good antenna. (if effectively, everything else is partially nulled
also; phased antennas usually are lossy)
best wishes,
Nick

I've been lusting in my heart after one of the new Array Solutions
Shared Apex Loop antennas for use in MW DXing. My lot would support
the SAL-12, but I doubt it would ever pass muster with my neighbors
and homeowners association. I'm curious if any AM DX'ers are using
this antenna, and how it has performed. See the link below for more
information.
