I like to listen to the bands at night while falling asleep. Sometimes copying code until I zonk out. A meager wire stung along the top of the bedroom was just not cutting it so I decided to make a small (It DID start out small) loop. I went to the home remodeling store and picked up some small scrap ends of 1/2 inch PVC, three "T" 's and 2 "X" 's. I cut 8 pieces 6 inches long and stuck those in the T's drilled 12 , 1/8 holes in a straight line 1/2 inch from each end. I threeded some heavy magnet wire through each side, added a 380 uF capacitor to "tune" it a little. Works like a champ. It rests on a 5.00 dollar tripod I got from the local Goodwill store!
I'll pick up some dowel rods to stiffen it up a little. It does work even if it turned out a little large.
30 inches X 30 inches!
