Hello all: I am not a technical or a DIY person. I am attempting to build an antenna that I saw somewhere online, basically two foot cross with 16 loops of bell wire attached to a variable capacitor.

Hi Gary, Thanks very much for your comments on the 738 kHz MP3. Here on the USA west coast we usually have a very tough time receivingSouth Pacific DX stations on barefoot Ultralights at all, so

Hello John, Ralph, Rick and Tony, John, your tuned passive loop project is an excellent idea that willgreatly boost your ULR's DXing performance. A modest 36" (side) portable loop ofthis type

It sounds like you are describing a spiral wound loop where the width of the loop is the width of the diameter of the wire. Here is a site with pictures of both the spiral wound and box wound

I see that the dual-conversion is listed as being for "AM". Since the shortwave bands are AM, it could be that the dual conversion is only on SW, as I've seen in other radios, including if memory

Thanks. The 3 step antenna attenuator is listed in the translated specs, it sounds like you didn't see the switch in the photos. Dual conversion on AM BCB and hopefully LW might cut interference? I am

I have a couple of ideas I would like to try out, and wondered if more info was already available from others, or if anyone here would have comments- 1] Wind a coil on an air core form which is many

Gary, I'm looking forward to seeing your report. With what you've done at the QTH in July with Ultralight gear, I'd like to see what you and some of the other West Coast guys could do there in

Hello Marc, Let me say that I am no antenna expert, just a student of numerous books and articles on antenna theory and design. First I'd like to cite the books from which I derived my information

Hi Gary A remarkable recording! It's always interesting to hear your TP catches. Who would have thought one could also hear 2 DU's fight it out on a barefoot ultralight at that distance - over 7 370

Thanks for this Sarmento! I will be interested to see the results of your comparison studies with the larger Brazilian ferrite bar antenna. My comparison between a 19 and 27 inch ferrite bar antennas

Hi Huelbe Excellent idea. I hope it will help me with the development and tests of inductive loop antennas. Regards Sarmento

Hi This is my new ferrite loop antenna experimental for ultralight DX. Argentina station almost 2100 km distant from my QTH in Rio de Janeiro. The actual size of the antenna is the yellow band plus

Hi Kirk, Great job on the new logging of 1530-KGBT in Texas, and I'm glad that thereplacement E100 Slider is still continuing to pull in the new stations foryou. The performance of the

Hi Stephen I live in Rio de Janeiro near lots of super power tx. In a range of mere 10 miles there are 5 transmitters with 100-150-200 kWatts output. Including 4 clear channels that some Qrg are

Hi Raphael It's a tuned loop very light in weight and its sized is fited to mechanicaly couple to the Sony 7600 and Sangean 909. As soon as I receive the 380 I'll get it shorter. I made a video of
