What challenge is presented by a small wire-loop antenna for direction finding?

  1. It has a bidirectional null patternRespuesta correcta
  2. It does not have a clearly defined null
  3. It is practical for use only on VHF and higher bands
  4. All these choices are correct

Explicación

A small loop has two nulls exactly 180 degrees apart, so a single bearing cannot say which of two opposite directions the signal came from. Resolving that ambiguity requires either a sense antenna to convert the pattern to a cardioid or a second bearing from another location.
