Good video! I like that Chameleon supports their mag loops with products like these. They arent just throw away antennas. They are investments for most of us and to see frequent upgrades is a nice thing.

It sure it Other Andy; when I made the investment in the 2.0 a few years ago, I had no idea this stuff was coming our way

Thanks for the update on that. Looks really good.

It is pretty impressive Don. No more hand dialing and intense focusing to get resonant.

Just subbed. My daughter lives in a HOA in the Denver area. I brought my IC-705 and Chameleon Mag Loop 3.0 with me. Tuning the antenna is really tough as all you have to do is touch the knob and the SWR red lines. I was just looking for a manual geared reduction attachment to help fine tune the antenna. I did a search on KZfaq and found this video. Without the automatic tuning part you are featuring is the motor slow enough to prevent the issue I am having with the knob being too fast? I like this setup though. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the question. Just like all mag loops, tuning by hand is touchy. With the motor and the manual remote, you can absolutely dial it in. Check out this video to see how I did it when I first started using it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/msBgl8d_yK2xn3k.html Then as I became more comfortable, I used this method (its an analyzer video but I focus on my mag loop from the shack}: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qZ6JqN2q1pOqc6M.html Oh, and if you do pick one up directly from Chameleon, let them know HOA Ham sent you.

I've got several of their systems; some of the best quality out there.

My only concern is the length of the remote control cable. At 12' it would not reach the antenna placement in the attic from the spare bedroom/shack. I'd need at last 25'.

@HOAHamRadio Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching @Drsef50. The Auto Tuner box actually stays in the shack at the radio, the remote tuner on the F-Loop goes into the attic. My F-loop is ~50 feet away.

That's a lot of money

@chadpayne4243 5 күн бұрын

How did you manage to get it 50’ away? The wire from chameleon looks to be 12’.

@HOAHamRadio 5 күн бұрын

When I set up my shack, and my attic antenna farm, I ran 5V power cable I purchased from Amazon. So it was cable I provided myself.

Seems more like semi-automatic but a welcome addition. Thanks 73

For those used to manually tuning by turning a knob by hand, this tuner is faster and certainly more simple...no need to sit there and concentrate on not passing by resonance due to high Q. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts.
