KB6KQ Loops are designed based on a 1/2 wavelength element: Mechanically strong, good
bandwidth, able to handle over 750 Watts, virtually impervious to the effects of rain and
other of mother nature's attempts to detune them, these Loops are manufactured with the KB6KQ
standard of excellence! They are easy to install and use, and their performance is acclaimed
by all users. Details are shown in the tables below.

STACKING LOOPS FOR INCREASED GAIN
|
|
The 2M Loops have been measured at 2.5dBd gain for a single Loop, and 5dBd for a pair stacked
the recommended 48" (5/8 wavelength) apart. One should expect similar performance on all
bands. Here is a chart of stacking distances for each band:
