I had a great visit from Gary DeBock and his son today. His new Ferrite
loop is amazing. He hooked it up in the backyard and I grabbed a
portable nd sat it next to the loop and not bad, on stations to the
East, KXLX-700 and KBOI-670 were weak but audible Mid afternoon. The
1500' beverage was better, but Gary's loop was probably 60-70% of the
signal on the beverage.
Anyway, after they left, I got looking at my NW EWE I just rehooked
back up and I found I could move the SE leg of it abit farther out to
make it make 5-10 degrees more to the NW. I think I can do it again,
after checked it again, but every little bit helps. It may improve my
chances of logging some of the few Alaskan's I am still missing like
KIYU-910 and KNSA-930.
Thanks Gary for the great visit!
73,
