My guess is their coax ruins the symmetry of the loops. it puts a grounded run of shield inside the loops, coupling across the choke. A simpler antennas too, A portable V dipole could have hinged arms, so it folds into a very compact convenient form for transport.

    My first HF rig was a Kenwood TS-430S with matching PS-430 power supply which I ended up giving it away to a disabled Ham that just got his General ticket as he couldn't afford an HF rig. I replaced it with a Yaesu FT-991a which I really love. I wanted a radio that would do 2 meter sideband 'cause we have a Wed. night local sideband net. I also have a Kenwood TM-281a, which is 65 watts for 2 meters only. My antenna is just a 2 meter antenna, a CushCraft Ringo Ranger II. HF antenna is an OCF dipole about 132 feet long. I also have an Antron 99 I use for 11 meters and 10 meters. My radio I ordered with the MARS mod so I could use it on 11 meters. Cheers & 73 from K9POW in eastern TN
