This is very similar to what I used many years ago and it improved
reception so much that I could listen to distant AM stations loud and
clear that I could barely hear at all with the regular rod antenna. I
would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a strong signal on AM.

These antenna boosters use a transistor RF amplifier that is
broadband.


There is NO transistor or RF amplifier on that antenna. It is merely
a coil of wire that, in effect, gives the antenna a longer length. I
never had a problem with mine picking up more noise, and it was on a
1958 Ford.
