HF Loop Antenna Wire Kits (160-10 meters)Product DetailsBrand: Palomar Engineers, Inc.Model: LWK-NNN, NNN = bandFrequency Band(s): 160-10 metersType: Horizontal or vertical loopFull 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.

Christmas lights or yard lights with switching DC power supplies are often the RFI source and a clamp on ferrite bead on the AC AND the DC side feeding the lights is needed to help suppress the switching power supply RFI noise. Suitable snap on beads are FSB31-1/2 for the 1-250 MHz range.
We have also had reported wireless HDTV boxes, and FOSCAM and AMCREST security camera systems causing RFI to garage door remote openers. Use our Garage Door Opener RFI kit to suppress the interference to the opener (VICTIM) – you need one kit for each opener. Maximize the distance from the camera to the openers may also help. Additionally shield cable to the garage door sensors may be needed depending on severity of the camera RFI.
Obvious Tech Note: make sure your remote batteries have enough energy to activate the GDO or the signal they transmit may not be large enough to over ride the RFI signal, but a fresh battery may be able to overcome the weak RFI source and allow the GDO to operate correctly.
