STN is about to start a new series about magnetic loop crafting which is pretty awesome!

Seems like a win-win situation. I like Julian's videos and I love my homebrew Magnetic Loop antenna. Thanks for the links.

Julian is very good at making videos and he has that radio voice, LOL. I am sure he will post about it here too.
Magnetic loops are awesome. I know you like them too Ray! The one I built at 21ft perimeter was a bit too long for 20m:
http://radiopreppers.com/index.php/topic,180.msg609.html#msg609 (http://radiopreppers.com/index.php/topic,180.msg609.html#msg609) I made many contacts with it on 40m from Florida to Eastern Europe using 1 to 5W.
The next one will have eight 60cm sections, close to 5m total perimeter and be fed with a toroid. I should make one for 10-20m as well. They are a pain to tune and have zero bandwidth but are very efficient. Making a magnetic loop is easy but it is great that Chameleon is making a kit. If it is as well built as the Hybrid Micro it will be a winner. The narrow bandwidth can be an asset when using tiny rigs with no filtering like the Rock-Mite.
