Fun with antenna design...
Having a little fun messing with a design for a simple quad loop design for 11m. Bottom edge would be a halfwave high....

Re: Fun with antenna design...
I've used L. B. Cebik, W4RNL books as reference in the past plus several antenna modeling and calculator sites. I enjoy building antennas out of junk I got laying around.

Re: Fun with antenna design...
I have to check the modeling. I'm thinking of putting up a horizontal loop for 80/40 meter bands and take down the G5RV dipole. I could use improvement on the low bands. Either that or a horizontal delta loop. I have a small space so maybe I can fit this in there. Thanks for posting this. Very interesting and cool antenna modeling.
