Gary,

Very clear new images, very envy-engendering! If only I knew
the location, I would jump the fence and nick the exhibits :-))

When you have time, could you use your empirical data
to estimate the size of poor-mans-loop (triangular, circular
and square, that would equate in performance terms to a
FSL and to a loopstick respectively?

The triangular loop is of special interest because it is easier to
construct rigidly.

(Comparison with a longwire like Jerry´s would likewise be
interesting, but that is more difficult - when does a short or telescopic
antennna "grow" into a longwire and into a beverage etc!)

On a more theoretical level, has there been any further investigation
into the hypothesis of a FSL modelling a reduced-size conventional loop,
but, due to the ring of ferrite rods inside, without reduced performance?

Thanks!
