Homemade Shortwave Magnetic Loop KTWR Guam and Radio Australia received In Scotland

[G0IFI]

It's hard to beat a loop for great S/N. Nice video.

Please see my video of interference from BT Vision homeplug/power line networking adapters in a neighbour's house, to see how these devices wipe out short wave reception.

What time were you listening to RA? 9475 has a long run & has RA Chinese service from 1300-1430 UT

Not bad reception considering it's from a 100 kW tx & the bearing (329 deg from Shepparton) isn't optimum for N Europe.

How is your local noise level? What is the freq range for the loop? RA has 11660 kHz on the same bearing from 1430-1700 UT at the moment. (It will change to 11825 soon)

cant remember what time it was...the noise floor at my QTH is pretty good. RA on 11660 is a great signal normally thanks for watching cheers and beers Mark

Great work there. Ive been thinking about a loop for sometime. Have just been to KR1STs swlloop page and think I might have a bash at this design at some point in the future. Once again, Great Work and 5*.

Hey, I built a quad mag mount with a 30 ft wire attached to coil. It does work great. Check out my site if interested. Great vid! 73 dx
