-may-be- The Better Over-All SWL Antenna !


- It works better than the 70' random wire,
- which used the same space.

Dave : Egg-Zak-Lee !

In the same Square Space :

The Longest Random/ Long Wire Antenna is
a Diagonal = 1.414

Where as a Wire [Perimeter] 'Loop' Antenna
is an all around Square {Loop} = 4.000

Which is 2.829 Times the Wire in the Air :
All Other Things Being =Equal=

~translation~
More Signal {More Wire In-the-Air}
Same/Less Noise {Balanced Antenna}
-result- Over-All Better S/N Ratio
