That is always true for loop antennas. There's no reason to even mention the maximum. The null is sharp (narrow) and deep and there fore easily detected. The peak is extremely broad and you won't see a difference if you are off by 20, 30 or more degrees.
Now if I only knew if people were using magnetic or true north......

As I was taught in the Navy....
You find the signal. Then you rotate the antenna for minimum signal. That is the direction the sending station is located.

> This is getting more and more confusing. Tom, do you mean then that the maximum signal would be 90 degrees away from 170, i.e., 80 / 260 degrees, or do you mean that 170 degrees is the direxion of the maximum, not minimum signal?
