HF Loop Antenna Wire Kits (160-10 meters)
Full Wave Loop Antenna Wire Kit for vertical or horizontal loops (square, rectangle or delta shaped) from 160 meters to 10 meter. Includes end insulators, #14 Insulated stranded copper wire and spade lugs for attachment to an optional balun
Insulators are a very stealthy, strong, 4 PVC, 2 1/4" long. 1" wide. 1 1/8" hole separation wire antenna insulators and may be black, gray or white depending upon inventory.
Typical size id 1005/F(MHz) and cut for lowest frequency in band segment.
For multi-band capability use 4:1 balun such as our Bullet-4BEB-500/1500 or CB-4-1500EB/5000EB with a feed line choke below it or best bet is to use the Hybird 4:1 + 1:1 balun, CB-4-1-1500. For single band use a 2:1 balun such as a Bullet-2B-500/1500 or CB-2-1500/5000EB. with a feed line choke below it or the hybrid CB-2-1-1500EB with built in 2:1 and 1:1 balun.
50 ohm coax to 75 ohm balanced output baluns are useful for low (< 1 wavelength) dipoles exhibiting 75 ohm characteristic impedance or for matching to balanced ladder line whose endpoint impedance is near 75 ohms.
50 ohm coax to 75 ohm CATV coax connections are easily done with a 1.5:1 unun with SO-239 connectors on input and output. Likewise 50 ohm coax to unbalanced verticals or loads near 75 ohms can be matched with a 1.5:1 unun.
