  • I tried stacking two 10mm wide aluminum flat bars. I think the gain has gone up. Next time, change the diameter and measure the gain difference.
    Thanks for watching and Take care. 🌈📻🌸
    ◆◆◆Note◆◆◆: If the surface of the Aluminum flat bar material is anodized, poor contact of the element may occur. If it is measured with a tester and there is no continuity, it is necessary to remove the alumite.73's!

    Hi dear Tengu, these aluminium flatbars are perfect for a job. Maybe it's not necessary but they allow you to form a nice circular shape. It looks so neat. Thank you for sharing, 73s Ron 👍 📻📶🌈🌺☀️

      Hi Dear Ron. Thank you very much. As you say, the bird might be happy to play if I shape it and make a pretty circle. Currently, two large loops are lined up on the veranda, the MLA-30 loop and the copper tube loop.73s Tengu🌈📻🐦○🐦○🐦

      I saw a video of surgery on your wonderful receiver.Your friend is a great engineer.It seems that the level is different from an amateur like me.I hope you can leave the hospital safely.
      The elements of this new flat loop are 2m x 2 = 4m (Max). In short, 1m × 2 = 2m (Min). Up to 125 cm in diameter.
      The minimum is about 65 centimeters.
      The material is thin aluminum, so it can be bent easily.
      so can easily correct the deformation.
      I am testing by changing the diameter to 110 cm.73s!!🌈

The receiver would jump frequency and by pressing the "Memory Recall" button it would resume correct frequency. The fault is a IC which the Memory Recall is connected to.

    Do you think there would be a problem to use painted binder clips instead of the silver ones? if I use conductive grease ?

    • @Ken.s_BCL-LogVideo
      @Ken.s_BCL-LogVideo  3 роки тому +1

      Hello. If the overlapping area of the flat bars is large, they will be electrostatically combined, so I don't think paint clips will affect them. If the overlapping area is small, it is best to fix it with a screw. I have never used conductive grease. It seems to be effective when used as a transmitting antenna. Thank you for watching.73s!!🌈

    • @okjames4658
      @okjames4658 3 роки тому +1

      Not a problem if your environment's noise floor is lower than your receiver's noise floor. But yes, noisy environment responds to gain too, and increased broadband signal strength could also create noise / intermod issues with the active amplification if it's overloading it. So it all depends on the environment if improved gain is good or not. Making a blanket statement about gain and noise is an over simplification.
