Delta loop antenna on higher HF bands

Here are the dimensions [deltaloop] 1005/28.3 x 12 x 2.54/100 = 10.82m 1/4 wave = 2.7m 1/3 wave = 3.60m 1/12 wave = 0.9m I had a 3m piece of 75ohm coax with an N connecttor and F connector. I measured the Vf of the cable as 0.8 using the MFJ259B. 1/4wave coax at 28.3 = 10.82 / 4 * 0.8 = 2.16m I cut the F end off and bared the wires of the coax That went into a chocolate block and joined to the end of the loop wire. I strung it up on a 5m pole and used some lengths of string to pegs i…
