To: ham-ant@ucsd.edu I have just acquired an AEA 10 to 30 Mhz Loop Antenna. Before I get it in the air, I would like to hear about any experiences that you may have had with this antenna. I have read the reviews of the 10 to 30 Mhz and the 14 to 30 Mhz versions in the ARRL Radio Buyers Sourcebook, Vol 2 (Great book, by the way!) but would like to hear about other real world experiences.. 73, Larry, KQ4BY ------------------------------ Date: 7 Apr 94 18:07:00 GMT From: news-mail-gateway@ucsd.edu Subject: Propagation Prediction Software To: ham-ant@ucsd.edu Hello: I am looking for public-domain, freeware or shareware propagation prediction software.
