The Delta Loop antenna is one of the famous ”magical antennas”, but in reality, the Delta Loop antenna is not as magical as it’s reputation. Despite its reputation as a Multi band antenna, it is a single band antenna. It can be somewhat tricky to make a Delta Loop with a low SWR. But after a lot of experimentation I finally found a ratio between the lengths of the sides of the Delta Loop that give reasonably low SWR into a 50 Ω coaxial cable almost independent of the high above ground and other surroundings. This ratio also gives good results no matter orientation, but the antenna have most gain when Side A is vertical and Side B is horizontal.
