DESIGN

This version of the Icom AL-705 loop has been designed to enable you to tune the antenna by changing the shape of the inner loop. This free-floating element is free and clear of obstructions, enabling it to couple with no inductive losses to supports. The design also enables you to independently move the inner loop closer or further from the outer loop, using the tuned spacer.  We know that you will enjoy the additional tuning & the ability to vary your signal pattern by ‘squashing’ the outer loop.

    Kit was complete, and contained directions the base antenna could have used. Very pleased with it.

    My first magloop is the Icom AL-705 magnetic loop antenna. Reverse Beacon Network says reached both KM3T-2 (Amherst, NH) and K3PA (Tonganoxie, KS) on 30m with indoor setup. Outdoor random wire antenna with same settings on IC-705 about 4 minutes later reached just KI4PAD (RALEIGH, NC). Looks like it should be a good POTA (and maybe someday SOTA) setup! 73,  N9EDL
