Re: [IRCA] KAZ versus Pennant/Flag



And....are the Asian signals (their carriers) actually stronger on the Kaz than on the Superloop, or is the "carrier to noise" ratio better on the Kaz? You should be able to tell that by looking at small portion of the Elad's display

If the interference level (noise / domestic splatter) is higher on the Superloop, the DX won't be as readable, even if its signal strength from the Asians is better.

This goes back to what some have been mentioning, that ability to null broadly and in a certain direction is often more important than aiming the antenna at the DX.


best wishes,

Nick

at least 40 deg from them than on your Superloop basically aimed right at
them. Your Superloop is 45 x 20 ft so 900 sq ft under it.

What is the height (bottom wire to apex) of your 72 ft KAZ?  73 KAZ worried
something might be wrong with connections to your Superloop.
