This is version 2 of the loop.

Air-wound 4:1 balun
Using a fullwave delta-loop on my attic fed with openwire feeder, I was in need of a 4:1 balun to connect this antenna to my AT100Pro automatic tuner. While constructing those is usually done using a toroid, I decided to go for an air-wound version. You can read more about it here ...

Microprocessor controlled LAB power supply

Magnetic loop antenna
If you think that a small antenna can not perform well on HF, think again and try your hands on a magnetic loop, also called STL (Small Transmitting Loop). After a lot of reading about the subject, I constructed my own. This really is a work in progress as I am all the time changing the design. The images shown still represent the first version of this antenna, in the mean while I am working on a motor driven vacuum capacitor to allow for remote tuning of the antenna.
