Three and a half to four foot loop antennas for several of the HF bands from 160- to 10-meters. A low-profile, compact antenna made from copper tubing and using a small D.C. motor to remotely tune the capacitor. Another loop for 20- through 10-meters using a novel "trombone slide" arrangement as a tuning capacitor.

The band noise on 160M is drastically reduced on receive using the loop. The typical daytime noise floor on the wire antenna at this QTH is S-5 and this reduces to S-1 with the loop.

The W6LVP mag loop includes a combination transmit/receive antenna switch and power inserter for the loop amplifier which enables a receive antenna to be easily used with transceivers, such as the popular Icom IC-7300, lacking a separate receive antenna input.
[TowerTalk] 160 meter receiving loop antenna schematic has beenposted
While 1 wavelength loops radiate broadside to the plane of the antennas, larger sizes tend to radiate more off the edges, and may have a broadside null. With larger loops (in terms of wavelengths), the patterns can have multiple lobes and nulls. We most often encounter this when we use a single loop antenna on multiple bands.

The skywire loop is an excellent antenna - they can be a bit of work to get up in the air if you have a lot of obstacles (trees, xyl, etc.) but it is worth it. What's the right length? 574' feet The length of a loop best suited for operation on 160 meters is too short for use on the higher bands.

Magnetic loop antenna for 160 - 15 metres Another item on this website discussed antennas that amateurs use to operate from confined locations. The smallest antenna described for 80 metres was a magnetic loop. This article provides details needed to build your own. Description Below is a diagram and some construction details.
160/80m Coaxial Loop Receiving Antennas
Here's an intriguing way to get on 160 and 80 meters with a stealthy magnetic loop antenna. In this video, Kevin Loughin builds, erects, and uses a 6-foot/1.829 meter diameter magnetic loop for 80 and 160 meters. As Kevin relates, " I create a two-turn loop to get down to 160 and it works quite well.
