Building a Double Coax MagLoop Part 2, why part two because I have a Air spaced Capacitor. So this upload is all about the remaking of the double loop using plumbs plastic pipe. it is a simple job but you will need some spacers and a lot of time to get it right. there is NO set diameter for the loops as its a factor of 10th wavelength or there abouts...I decided on 75cm in diameter and ended up with 74cm but it still works so!!!
Parts:
6M of ridged Coax ( something like Andrew Heliax) 15mm
4 spacers (I used PVC Pipe)
2.4M 50mm plastic plumbers pipe
50cm 40mm plastic plumbers pipe
Variable Air Capacitor to finish the job
Special thanks to Andy M0JLY and Chris M1BZN
