I have been using a long/random length wire for DX RX with SDR and would like to improve the receive.
My backyard perimeter will allow me to build a 40x24 rectangle about 10 feet off the ground. I could cross corners with the wire to connect the corners and create an electrically longer loop.
Would there be a benefit of creating a loop vs. a long wire of equal length and would connecting the corners to each other (think rectangle with an X) make a difference?
Adding the cross-points to the wire would give me another ~60 feet of wire from point to point.
