How to make the Super antenna. To build this antenna you need a lot that is at least 100 feet across. Antenna covers all bands 80-10 meters + 30, 17, 12 meter WARC Bands This antenna works as a Full Wave Loop on 80 Meters and also works as a 2 wavelength open loop or Bi-Square on the 40 Meter band

This PDF document details the construction of a **70 MHz** Big Wheel antenna, a horizontally polarized omnidirectional array. The design utilizes three full-wave loops, each approximately **2160 mm** in diameter, arranged in a triangular configuration. The resource provides mechanical dimensions for the antenna elements and a comprehensive bill of materials, specifying component quantities and types, such as M8 stainless steel bolts, 15x15x1.5 mm square aluminum tubing for spacers, and 8 mm aluminum rod for the arcs. The central hub is constructed from two 160x160x8 mm aluminum plates, with four 40 mm long polyamide insulators supporting the radiating elements. The feed system incorporates a 50 mm diameter aluminum pipe for mounting and a matching stub constructed from a 120x20x2 mm aluminum sheet, connected via M8x10 mm bolts. The resource includes a diagram illustrating the mechanical dimensions and assembly points, including the N-connector fixing point and the center conductor attachment. The project was published on May 25, 2011, by Peter OE5MPL and Rudi OE5VRL. DXZone Focus: PDF | 70 MHz Big Wheel | Mechanical Dimensions | **2160 mm** loop diameter

This loop antenna is intended to be connected as an antenna for receivers that do not have a built-in antenna such as an HF set or an old tube radio. This square barrel is wound on a wooden frame. It consists of two windings that are galvanically isolated from each other, a main and a coupling winding. The diameter is about 40 cm.
