Delta Loop HF Antenna for the Ariel

[ebb]

I'm responding here because nobody else has run with this thread yet
Am one who needs a tutorial. Can understand this is very important stuff
but need to be taken by the hand and shown what to do. Even how to think about it?

I like the idea of an Ariel being able to put out an 8.000 mile GPS signal.
Seems like it would be useful to set something like this up for cruising.
Don't know. Don't know options.

If I needed to speak with authorities, with homebase, loved ones, as they say....
picking up a satilite phone, if that is correct, is about all I can imagine.
Can see the internet and some of the toys used for texting might be useful.
Haven't an idea.

Can see from the delta diagram that the horizontal leg running thru the interior
could bring a lightning strike inside............
