The Horizontal Loop — An Effective Multipurpose Antenna

摘要

It's been well documented that a large horizontal loop will perform well as an amateur radio antenna. It may also be one of the most misunderstood of antennas. Many hams believe a loop must be resonant on the lowest operating frequency to work well at the design and higher frequencies. The fact is, as I will show later, a loop need not be resonant at all to perform well.
