In this video, Mike (M0MSN) completes his magnetic loop antenna.  He lists the components and materials needed for the project and shows us how all the parts fit together.  He finishes the build with some testing and completes a contact once the antenna is in place. Overall, this project is an example of excellent design, construction, and documentation.  Here are a few comments from Mike: So much to do, the construction of a Mag Loop.. Its all been none stop over the past month or two... let me know in the comments below what you want to see me build and I will try to do it. :) This upload is all about building a MagLoop (Magnetic Loop Antenna) its been a long time in the making but has proven to be worth the wait. this is part 2 of a 2 part upload, in this part I will list all th

Thanks to Mike (M0MSN) for this outstanding two-part series on building a magnetic loop antenna. In part one, we go through the design and construction phase of this antenna.  In part two, we get a full list of materials and tools needed for the project. A well-done and detailed approach to magnetic loop antennas. Here are some of Mike's comments: So much to do, the construction of a Mag Loop.. Its all been none stop over the past month or two... let me know in the comments below what you want to see me build and I will try to do it. :) This upload is all about building a MagLoop (Magnetic Loop Antenna) its been a long time in the making but has proven to be worth the wait. this is part 1 of a 2 part upload, in the second part I will list all the parts and measurements you will
