Hi Guys,
It was Howard that mentioned the full size loop.  Is the formula for a loop
1005 divided by frequency?
Now the formula for a half wave dipole is 4 68 divided by frequency.  My
next question is why is the loop more than twice as long as the dipole?
Seems like a full size antenna should only be twice as long.  I am not an
engineer though.  73
