Good stuff. I run 75 ohm coax, on the array with 2 loops, and 75/50 ohm on single loops. I have not had any issues on swr. But you do have to play to get it where you want it. I did build a vertical moxon, but had trouble keeping it tuned being made out of wire and sruts. I think aluminum tube would be required for a good moxon.  I would love to do some horizontal polarization for the dx. I will do some more work next summer on my 2 loops, one will need some care by then. I am sold on loops. They just seem to work better than anything at my location, ability to get them up and maintain them, and money I have to play with. If anyone builds one, do post your results. I am sure there is tons of room to play with these. Thank you for all your efforts, do not ever be worried about throwing in on what I post. I am just a tinkerer, I was a master electrician by trade, so have wire in my blood. I enjoy wire antennas, and can usually scrounge most of my materials. I am slowly getting tower materials stocked up from friends and family dropping off bits, so perhaps some day a pair of loops on rotors will happen, that would be on my list for some fun. I am mostly retired now, this stuff helps fill my day here on the farm.
