Chameleon Antenna CHA-SKYLOOP-2

The CHA SKYLOOP 2.0 is a 286' full wave loop antenna cut for 80M. The main advantages of a horizontal loop antenna are reduced background noise and a better gain over a dipole—which means signals will be stronger. The antenna is comprised of 286 feet of 16ga. wire, insulators, and a matching transformer unit. The integral broadband impedance matching network transformer allows broadband antenna tuning. The antenna will operate from 3.5 - 54 MHz (including 80m – 6m amateur bands) without any adjustment with a wide range antenna tuner.

An open space of at least 72' X 72' will be required to install and support the antenna properly. The antenna should be ideally installed at least 30' to 40' off the ground for maximum performance although if mounted at lower heights the antenna still performs with reduced efficiency. The Skyloop 2.0 is an efficient omni-directional antenna over most real earth and exhibits a good signal-to-noise ratio. Successful local and DX operation can be made when the antenna is elevated at least 20' above ground but the higher the better.
