Hi Group:
OK... here's my mag loop story:
I have two AlexLoops.... and one is the original version that uses copper tubing for the main loop. I used that loop to make an RTTY QSO with a station in Moldova. I had set the loop up indoors (in my sunroom, which has a lot of windows) and worked that station on 40 meters... running 3 or 4 watts.
OK, it was during a contest... the contact was quick, but acknowledged both ways... so a Q is a Q.And, that was my best DX with that antenna. The fact that it was 40 meters, the loop's least efficient band, is amazing to me. I suspect that the other guy was using a much better antenna, and likely more power.
