The 160/80m coaxial receiving loop antennas are designed to enhance reception on the top bands while minimizing noise. These antennas are particularly beneficial for operators with limited space, as they can be constructed using lightweight materials, making them portable and easy to deploy. The standalone 80m loop has a diameter of approximately four feet, allowing for easy rotation and installation above existing VHF antennas. Over the years, many amateur radio operators have turned to loop antennas as a viable alternative to traditional beverage antennas. The design allows for significant noise reduction, especially when paired with a quality pre-amplifier. Experimentation with various configurations has led to the discovery that diamond-shaped loops provide optimal performance. Users have reported a noticeable improvement in signal quality, making these loops a valuable addition to any low-band DXing setup.

The author, WB8ERJ, shares insights into building these devices, noting their application in amateur radio for projects like Hinternet or HSMM (High-Speed Multimedia) networks. The article outlines the necessary components and steps, emphasizing the DIY aspect for hams interested in digital modes and local area networking. The resource explains how to determine the correct probe placement within the can, a critical dimension for optimal performance at 2.4 GHz. It references specific measurements, such as the 1.25-inch distance from the can's bottom, derived from calculations for the 2.4 GHz band. This precision ensures the antenna functions effectively for its intended purpose of signal amplification. Readers gain actionable knowledge for fabricating a functional antenna from common materials, suitable for experimentation or practical deployment in a ham shack or field environment. The focus remains on the hands-on construction and the measurable results of improved signal strength.

Author evaluated a custom-built passive AM loop antenna, achieving notable DX reception including KLBJ Austin (230 miles) and WWL New Orleans (700 miles). The antenna operates solely on resonant inductive coupling, enhancing weak signal reception without external amplification. This project illustrates how fundamental RF design—calculating inductance, capacitance, and Q factor—can significantly boost performance of consumer-grade radios. Detailed construction techniques, theoretical background, and optimization strategies for effective loop antenna design are presented for amateur and experimental use.

Demonstrates _Freq51_ and _Specgrm2_, two analysis programs from the Biomedical Ultrasonics Laboratory at the University of Michigan, available for DOS or Linux. The _Spectrum Analyser (Freq51)_ provides power spectrum levels as a function of frequency, configurable for absolute values (e.g., dB re 1 volt) with sound card calibration. _Spectrogram (Specgrm2)_ generates a real-time, full-screen spectrogram (sonagram) with various color options. These programs analyze incoming signals in real time, not stored files, and offer extensive settings for sampling rate, FFT points, and averaging time, making them highly versatile for acoustic analysis. The DOS version of _Freq51_ and _Specgrm2_ can operate under Windows 95, requiring users to configure sound card switches via a text file. The resource also briefly mentions other acoustic analysis software like Gianni Pavan's DOS-based bioacoustic tools, _Gram_ by R.S.
