for interesting designs for receiver
loops by Jim Moritz, M0BMU, I will
be trying out Jim's method of coupling a
loop to a feeder, which I suspect will
be better than the one described below.
Watch this space
About a year ago I made a receiving
loop for 136kHz using computer ribbon
cable housed in plastic waste pipe. It
wasn't very successful. It would appear
that the low Q caused by the
construction of the ribbon cable was the
problem. I have since made the G3LNP
loop although I had difficulties with
the amplifier. I finished up using a low
impedance pick-up loop without the
amplifier - this worked reasonably well
but it did lack sensitivity.
I
decided to redesign the plastic waste
pipe special because if its inherent
weather resistant structure This
time I made it twice the size and used
Litz wire from the Crawley club source.
This antenna turned out to be very good
and outperformed all other loops built
previously. Furthermore, this design
does not need an amplifier. A
description of its construction follows.
The loop housing comprises 34mm
plastic waste pipe forming a square
loop, 2m per side as shown on the right.
The corners are joined using 90 degree
elbow joins. The structure is held in
place with an aluminium T section
comprising a 45mm pole and an angle top
piece.
The loop itself comprises 10 turns of
2.5mm Litz wire and a single turn
pick-up loop. The loop is assembled by
cutting 11 x 8.3m lengths of wire and
feeding them through a single 2m length
of waste pipe. One 90 degree elbow is
fixed to the end of the first 2m length
of pipe after first feeding the wires
through. The wire
bundle is then fed through the second
section of pipe and a second joint
added. The third section of pipe and
joint are then added. Construction
should be done with the plastic pipes
laying on the ground - at this stage the
whole structure is very floppy.
The wires are then fed through the
fourth length. This is where it gets a
bit tricky. The final 90 degree elbow
should have two slots cut in it on the
outside part of the elbow so that the
wires can be fed through and still be
clear of the pipes when they are fixed
in. When the wires are fixed in place
the first and the fourth lengths of pipe
can be pushed into the elbow joint.
The
fourth elbow forms the bottom part of
the loop (shown right) is strengthened
by fixing it to a piece of
weather-proofed plywood using standard
waste-pipe wall-mounting brackets. This
plywood base also provides a method of
fixing the loop to the support mast.
The loop is fixed to the support mast
and the top T section using appropriate
sized U bolts.
Each of the wires has now to stripped
of insulation and tinned. They also have
to be identified using a multimeter so
that they can be connected together to
form a continuous 10 turn loop. The 11th
turn, the pick up loop, is connected to
the receiver coax feed. I used connector
blocks in the prototype because of the
rather experimental nature of the
project. They are sprayed with spray
grease to prevent corrosion. You could
solder the wires together with a shrink
wrap cover.
The main loop is resonated with a
mixture of 6 x 150pF fixed capacitors
and a 500pF variable (meshed about
two-thirds) giving a resonating capacity
of around 1200pF. The whole of the
bottom of the loop is wrapped in plastic
sheet, held in place with clothes pegs,
to keep out the rain
If you can't find Litx wire you could
use PVC insulated wire. The Litz wire
used here has a wire diameter of
approximately 1.5mm; the diameter
including the insulation is 2.5mm. If
you use electrical wire check that it
has an insulating thickness of at least
0.5mm because, with this construction
the insulator material determines the
wire spacing. The wire should also be
fairly soft and flexible to ease
construction.
