re: a MFJ-936B loop tuner
I just bought a MFJ-936B used and it is on the way to me. I need some help in making a 80m loop antenna for it. The manual for the MFJ-936B (I looked the manual up online) says the 80m 1/4 wave loop has to be 63 feet in dia. How is this possible for an antenna tuner that is supposed to be for a portable field antenna system. My open air (no roof) balcony is 5 feet long and 3 feet wide. A 63 foot dia loop antenna won't fit on my balcony. Can someone please help me make a 80m loop antenna that will fit on my balcony. Maby a 2 or 3 loop, loop antenna. Kind a like the crude attached drawing?
