SuperLoop 80 is a high performance, full size, full-wave, 80 meter
loop antenna. On 40 meters the SuperLoop 80 is a 2 wavelength open
loop or Bi-Square. The stub in the top leg of the antenna opens the loop when
operating on 40 meters and selected other bands. This improves the antenna's
radiation pattern. Its gain is around 4 dB, but it will seem much higher due to
its excellent, low angle, radiation pattern.
The
Dedicated Matching Unit with all the other components in the antenna work
together to provide a well managed SWR on all bands. While the SWR is not below
2:1, it is low enough to permit the use of coaxial cable. System losses are
low. |

The SuperLoop 80®
is an outstanding performer on all bands, 80 - 10 meters. Combine all band
operation, coax feed, with gain on all bands, and the SuperLoop 80
the obvious choice in a multi-band DX loop antenna system.
The
SuperLoop 80 has been used on several DX'peditions. The first was
Navassa '88. Since then, the SuperLoop has been installed in DX
stations all over the world. As I promised, when we come up with a better idea,
you will see it in our products. So, stand back - The SuperLoop 80
has an improved, low loss, matching system. You'll get even better performance
from this new SuperLoop. |
