Anyone play with a horz Omni loop and gain anything? Right now I’m using a horz delta and a Astro plane vertical on different radios. I notice I hear less beacon rolling atmosphere crap on the delta over the astroplane. But what advantage would I really gain over building a Omni 10m loop? Edit: for local coms

Your Horizontal Delta loop is an omni. Can't see any advantage to building a square loop to do the same thing.

I built a horizontal 11 meter full wavelength loop and it was insanely noisy....even worse than my Antron 99. The horizontal delta loop I run now is very quiet by comparison. So while they are both loops, one is much quieter than the other for some reason.
