I saw the ribbon cable but big loops need wide spacing, so I thought of the 450 ladder line-Rik

Rik, People have used ribbon cable to make loops. The wires are offset at the ends and jumpered in header connectors so there's a continuous circuit. Not sure about the turns spacing, but sure is easy

I use my 4 foot loop horizontally near the ceiling most of the time, but wish it collapsed for transport. I am thinking about using 450 ohm ladder line with off set connections at the base, so

Please accept my apologies if I am repeating myself but I don't seem to be able to find an original. Does anyone have any up to date link for WRLog. I can't find it on the internet any longer and

Jim, Thanks for the tip on DX Atlas! It looks like great software. Here's one of the best-kept AM BCB DX secrets: I use the SS/SR charts from the NRC/IRCA clubs available as reprints. Those charts
