ZS2VR | VR | Rizzo | 10/06/2023 | ZS2AB Constructor's Trophy | Vaughan has done an immense amount of research, and been building magnetic loop projects for a couple of years now. This year he has taken it to the next level. He has made parts with his CNC machine, printed prototype parts on his 3D printer, and is now producing mag loops in various sizes, that can be tuned to multiple bands. He's also working on a smaller portable version for SOTA outings, and the quality of the antennas he has made is exceptional. His mag loop antennas work phenomenally well, and from the lawn at his townhouse making solid DX contacts week after week. This is a true reflection of his engineering capability driven by his passion for amateur radio. |
