Re: [HCDX] Horizontal Loop: Kiwa Loop



Murray,

     Assuming you're interested in a loop for AM DXing, I have and really
enjoy the Quantum QX Pro loop.  There is an review comparing it to the Kiwa
loop easily found on the internet, and if I remember the comments correctly,
the comparison showed both loops to be very similar but the edge went to the
Quantum loop.  The other advantage is that the Quantum is still being
produced, unlike the Kiwa.  You can get more info on the Quantum loop here:

    I have no connection to this company or to the Quantum loop other than
being a very satisfied customer!

     Randy/Ohio
